Leap Year Jazz

2008 is a Leap Year.
A leap year is a year in which one extra day has been inserted, at the end of February.
A leap year consists of 366 days, whereas other years, called common years, have 365 days.
Every year that is divisible by four is a leap year; of those years, if it can be divided by 100, it is NOT a leap year, unless
the year is divisible by 400.
That does this all mean??!!
It means that on this magical extra day wonderful things in wild places go down, and if you miss out on them you pretty much lose until 2036.
That being said....
Come out and support past Lolita Party Homies for a good old fashioned NYC dance party. Lauren Flax & Project Matt will be keeping it real in the basement @ Lotus.
