Happy New Year

Happy Chinese new year by the way. Year of the Goat, is it? Personally, I like the Chinese zodiac - I like it more than the one all western astrologers use, though I don't see how accurate it could be in determining a person's personality. I mean, everyone born in the same year would have the same sign, though since the Chinese zodiac is on a 12 year cycle, that makes it no less accurate than the regular, monthly zodiac.

Incidentally, I'm a "Dog", zodiacally speaking. I could be a secret agent:

"People born in the Year of the Dog possess the best traits of human nature. They have a deep sense of loyalty, are honest, and inspire other people's confidence because they know how to keep secrets. But Dog People are somewhat selfish, plagued by constant worry, terribly stubborn, and eccentric. They care little for wealth, yet somehow always seem to have money. They can be cold emotionally and sometimes distant at parties. They can find fault with many things and are noted for their sharp tongues. Dog people make good leaders, activists, teachers, or secret agents. They are compatible with those born in the Years of the Horse, Tiger, and Rabbit but ill-suited to the dragon and goat.

"Some Dogs: Cher, Winston Churchill, Bill Clinton, Socrates, George Gershwin, Benjamin Franklin, Herbet Hoover, Jane Goodall, Lucy Maud Montgomery, and David Niven."
