Almost Forgot: Happy Chinese New Year

This is the Year of the Monkey--NOT THE CHIMP!

The spunky Monkey is the original party animal! Charming and energetic, Monkeys crave fun, activity and stimulation. They truly know how to have a good time and can often be seen swinging from one group of friends to another, attracting a motley crew in the process.

And while 2004 might be the year of the Monkey, this is my weblog, so, for purposes of comparison, here's the same website's explanation for my birth year's sign--the Snake:

Diplomatic and popular, the Snake has the sensual art of seduction down. This Sign is an interesting mix of gregariousness paired with introversion, intuitive reasoning paired with savvy business skills. Snakes are considered to be lucky with money and will generally have more than enough to live life to the fullest, regardless of how important it considers money to be; this may be due to the fact that Snakes tend to be rather tight with cash. They're not stingy, they're simply more mentally than physically active. Snakes tend to hang back a bit in order to analyze a situation before jumping into it. Their charming, seductive quality actually belies a rather retiring nature; this Sign is perfectly happy to spend the whole day curled up with a good book and, thus, can be mislabeled as being lazy.

Sounds about right (joke).

Oh, and then, just out out of curiousity, I decided to look up the Resident's sign. So I did an internet search for "miserable failure," and, sure enough, the first site listed was Dubya's bio. Using his birth year, 1946, I discovered that Dubya was born in the year of the Dog (edited only for purposes of space--honest):

Dog People are somewhat selfish, 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.

Maybe there's more to this zodiac stuff than I thought.
