It's the New Year!

But that's only if you're Chinese or subscribe to the Chinese lunar calendar.  This is a good year for rabbits, as I learned today.  You're a rabbit of you were born in 1915, 1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, or 1999.  As for me... I'm a cock rooster.  I note that seemingly all of the Chinese zodiac sites I went to today have adopted the politically-correct nomenclature for my year.  It wasn't always so, as The Second Mrs. Pennington never failed to point out to me whenever we went to a Chinese restaurant with those place-mats.  She thought that was just hilarious.  Yeah, right.  Ha ha.

The Guardian has a cool 21-picture photo essay, which is where I grabbed this:


Cute, eh?
