Somehow containing my urge to start leaping uncontrollably
Yeah, you know it, Jeremy. Everyone is quite aware of your overriding urge to jump up, jump up and get down.
Really? House of Pain?
Don't look at me. You're the one making stupid jokes about Leap Year.
Fair enough.
So, today is February 29th. The day of the year set aside for the fact that it takes the earth an extra 6 hours to orbit the sun every 365 days. It's also the day that you get to hear the same old tired jokes about how young certain people are when today is their birthday, so they age at 1/4 the rate everyone else does. We get it.
It's also a huge capitalist scam for people who are paid an annual salary. The companies we work for get a whole extra day's work out of us for nothing. It's pretty much the other side of Ebenezer Scrooge's whine about giving Bob Cratchit the day off for Christmas. "That's a poor excuse for picking a man's pocket every 25th of December." It's the same thing, but it happens roughly 1/4 as often.
