Leap Year Observations

Happy Leap Year Day.

We have had our first leap year genius observation already.

Maria was asking how people who are born on February 29 celebrate their birthday. Gigi replied that they probably celebrate on February 28. Good answer, not something that I would say. I’d probably say that they only celebrate their birthday every four years, but that was the nice and logical answer.

Here’s the kicker, Maria followed up another question.

“So do they age differently (than other people)?”

I would say that yes they do, they age faster than “normal” people. Lets say if you were born on February 29, 1968. Technically you've only had 10 birthdays, but you look about 40. I’d say that’s advanced aging right there.
