Leap Year Baby: Betty Flemming will celebrate her 22nd birthday today even though she was born on February 29, 1924. Being a 'Leap Year Baby' means she was legally old enough to buy booze beginning in 2008. Flemming will be 88 this year and lives in a retirement community in Springfield, Virginia. She says, "On my eighth birthday, my mother threw me a big surprise party on February 29th. I then realized what a special day it was. Every other year, we celebrated my birthday on March 1 because my mother said 'Feb. 28 was a day too soon!' However, like any birthday, the hardest part is aging. Even if Feb. 29 doesn't come, I'm still another year older."

It is estimated that 4 million people share Flemming's birthday, including celebrities Ja Rule, Tony Robbins and Antonio Sabato Jr. Peter Brouwer, the co-founder of the Honor Society of Leap Year Day Babies, says, "The law of averages means your chance of being born on Feb. 29 are one out of 1,461. 1,461 equals 365, or the number of days in the year, times four, plus one for the extra day in the four-year cycle. We figure in the U.S., there's about 200,000 of us, and in the world, about 5 million."

We are shocked, SHOCKED! that the online dating service, AshleyMadison.com, findsWashington, D-C to be the best city for cheating on your spouse. AshleyMadison pitches itself as an online place for people looking to cheat on their significant other, so they just tally up which city has the most members per capita, and that'd be the nation's capital, with 38-thousand members.

Website founder NOEL BIDERMAN says Washington tops out because successful, powerful men and women in politics "are massive risk takers willing to transfer that risk-taking to their personal lives."   And, he adds, "The more successful you are, the more prone to cheating you are and Washington is full of successful people looking for something outside their marriage."

 Nationwide, the site has 13 million members.

The top 10 cheatin' cities:
10. Phoenix
 9. Salt Lake City
 8. Oklahoma City
 7. Pittsburgh
 6. Boston
 5.Chicago
 4. Dallas
 3. Orlando
 2. San Antonio
 1. Washington

  Good to see Salt Lake City and Oklahoma City on that list. I was beginning to worry that the Mormons and the Rick Santorum supportin' part of the country had lost their touch.

   --The newspaper reporting this story asks readers in an online poll: Have you ever cheated on a partner? Have said yes, half said no. So if you ain't the one cheatin' --ya follow my drift here? Good. I can explain it in greater detail over drinks tonight at my place.

   --Of course it'd be Washington D-C, the place that screws 300 million people every day.

   --Must be why we needed all that expensive stimulus.
