    I'm not sure if this might actually go in coding horrors, but... We all have run into some kind of pain associated with dates in leap years.

                You were probably the last person I expected to see critiquing women's shoes. I already learned a lot today...

                    Oh I agree with you. It's just funny seeing you and DD discussing fashion in the Lounge.
