Denying one's age is an acceptable practice as we get older. But if you only have a birthday every fourth year, you can never be accused of lying about it.

The Outlook is looking for leap year birthday stories to run in the Wednesday, Feb. 29, issue. We're nosy enough to ask how and when you celebrate the anniversary of your birth, and we especially enjoy humorous anecdotes about being born on a leap year.

Tell us your story by Friday, Feb. 17. Reporter Anne Endicott can be reached at 503-492-5118 or by email at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .
