    It keeps our calendar year in sync with our solar year - so spring essentially shows up on time, and we have the Romans to thank for figuring this all out a really long time ago.

    Cause it,s PEOPLELOVERS Birthday.

    If you're a single woman with your eye on a special guy, this is the day to pop the question. If he refuses, by tradition he owes you. This is an Irish tradition according to which St. Bridget cut a deal with St. Patrick allowing women to propose marriage to men on a leap day. Men were penallized if they refused the proposal. Small consolation, perhaps, but a “no” would leave the forlorn miss in line for a new gown or several pairs of new gloves.
