But I thought the odds were just too great. Kevin Grasse, a University of Oklahoma mathematics professor, said the chance of a leap year mother having a leap year baby are about one in two million. Stoner said there are pros and cons to being born on Feb. 29. But for three years in a row we always celebrated my birthday on February 28.

Nine people are suing the Rancho Santa Fe movie theater, saying they were terrorized and injured in a stamped sparked by a fake gunfight at the theater in July. According to a police report, theater managers said they hired men to dress as cowboys and stage a mock gunfight outside the theater as patrons left the building. The resulting terror prompted patrons to hide in empty theaters, scale walls and hide under vehicles, according to a lawsuit filed Tuesday in state District Court. Even the police were suckered, responding to the scene after reports of multiple calls of shots being fired. The plaintiffs contend they were given no notice of the mock shootout.
