Year of the Pig

The Pig is a fun and enlightening personality blessed with patience and understanding. People born under the sign of the Pig enjoy life and all it has to offer, including family and friends. They are honest and thoughtful and expect the same of other people. Pigs can be perceived as oblivious or gullible because they do care about others so much that they will do just about anything for a friend in need.

I.I.R.C., I was born under the year of the dog. ('Dogs are loyal, faithful and honest and always stick to their firm codes of ethics. However, this Sign has trouble trusting others. It's generally quite trustworthy itself -....'.

Woof!..

LOL... Happy Chinese New Year!!

My son and I are both Year of the Rat...

The Eastern rat is revered for its quick wits and its ability to accrue and hold on to items of value; rats are considered a symbol of good luck and wealth in both China and Japan. Clever and quick-witted, the Rat of the Chinese Zodiac is utterly disarming to boot. Possessed of excellent taste, this Sign flaunts its style at every turn. Its natural charm and sharp, funny demeanor make it an appealing friend for almost anyone. The Rat likes to know who is on its side and will treat its most loyal friends with an extra measure of protection and generosity.

I be a Snake ( I have to shift to the previous years animal as my birthday falls between Jan 1st and the start of the Chinese New Year )

The person born in the year of snake is perhaps the wisest and most enigmatic of all. He/she can become a philosopher, a theologian, a political lizard or a wily financier. Such a person is a thinker who also likes to live well. The snake-person loves books, music, clothes, and fine food; but with all their fondness for the good things in life, their innate elegance gives them a dislike for frivolities and foolish talk.

Snake-persons like communicating and like interesting conversations; if the conversation becomes repetitive their attention may soon wander. It is almost impossible to fix their attention for long talking about every day habits. They prefer to focus on new, interesting and evolutionary ideas in general.

LOL Reminds me of the South Park episode with the Trapper Keeper and the mountain sized monster or is it Rosie O'Donnell, jokes.

Just for interests sake its the Golden Pig this year, not just any old pig.

Lots of Hong Kong Chinese have hired multiple jets to fly to Cairns to celebrate Chinese New Year.

Not sure why.confused Just a bit of useless information for you. Bazza
