Happy Chinese New Year
Gung Hay Fat Chow. It is the Year of the Dog. If you were born in 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994 or 2006, you were born under the sign of the Chinese dog. Some famous dogs:
"I can keep a secret. Can YOU?"People born in the Year of the Dog possess a deep sense of loyalty,
are honest and inspire other people's confidence
because they know how to keep secrets.
"It's lamé, people. Lamé! Not gold."
are honest and inspire other people's confidence
because they know how to keep secrets.
"It's lamé, people. Lamé! Not gold."They care little for wealth, but always seem to have money.
" SHUT UP!"
Dog people are somewhat selfish, terribly stubborn and eccentric.
The Life of the Party: Debbie Downer "You'd better finish those green beans.
People are starving in India."
People are starving in India."
They can be cold emotionally and sometimes distant at parties.
"I'm a Hound Dawg."Dog people make good leaders.
It is the Year of the Dogcow -- MOOF!Postscript: I've been talking to my friend Travis, Throwing Hammers while he's in the slammer, and he seems to be bearing up well for a "much needed rest." They must be giving him internet acccess, because today Travis sent me his latest in response to the above picture of Elvis, inspired by today's blogs of Direct Current and Rhinestone Cowgirl: DirectCurrent

Moof? I think that's 23.16 times better than the alternative: "Woo"
The dogcow is Clarus who belongs to MacIntosh-Apple computer history. Clarus always says, "Moof." I took the Chinese character for "moo" and added an "f." :)
Bush and Clinton as dogs...I suppose like most zodiac stuff it's all in what traits you want to emphasize. What a great contrasting cast of characters.
As I get to know your personality a bit more through your comments, I can just picture you there, picking out these pics, and coming up with your snarky comments for them. This is so funny.
I'm not a dog. I don't know what I am.
My last partner was a dog, a Chinese astrology dog, but also ... a dawg. Know what I mean? As a Dragon I'm not supposed to get along with Dogs. So far, this has proved to be true. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
I wondered why my Chinese neighbor's back yard was burned this weekend. Now I know.
Happy new year!
Great captions! I love some Debbie Downer.
hahah! Obviously I need to do quite a bit of upper-body work :-)
Mass: Isn't that interesting. I looked up famous people born in the Year of the Dog (including Sophia Loren, Judy Garland, Sylvester Stallone, David Bowie (almost used him), Winston Churchhill. Not that I believe in any of it, but it was a fun project. When I look at famous people born on my birthday (and I'm not saying who to give it away), I'm always like, "What the..." it's so odd.
Velvet: I've been enjoying getting to know you through your blog, as well. The El Guapo piece you had going recently was hysterical. It's funny how our personalities come out in these blog pieces, and I do believe that they do. As for what sign you are? Use this to calculate:

Reya: Guny Hay Fat Chow to you, too. :)
Phil: Probably setting off firecrackers to ward off the bad demons in the neighborhood.
Momentary: A Happy New Year for you, as well.
Mystery: I think everyone knows a Debbie Downer in their lives. As for Mother Theresa, Christopher Hitchens used to write these scathing pieces against her in Vanity Fair magazine.
Obviously, my appetite for bling has rubbed off on my honey.
Michael Jackson scares me.
Where did the "Commander Bush" money pic come from? Was it created as a serious tribute to 9/11? Everything about it looks quite serious, except for his picture. Then again, I'm not sure I've ever seen a picture of Bush in which he looks serious ...
Rhinestone: I think you are probably a good influence on each other, and it's a nice balance. What is it Julia Roberts says in Steel Magnolias about her unborn child, "If he has Jackson's good looks, and my sense of style..."
Johnny: Scares you? Michael Jackson is SO beyond scary, it's not funny.
Mataz: This was the source for the Bush money picture:

Happy New Year! Moof!
I'm a Dragon and an Aries/Ram and an ENFP. Regardless of all that, I am a Cat first and foremost.
As it is the year of the Dog, I suppose I need to hide out until next year, so I will be needing a years supply of catnip to keep me sated. (Winking at Cubie)
>^, ,^<
Megan: Moof to you.

Wrethy: Do you deserve catnip? Have you been good?

"did you know that feline AIDS is the number one killer of cats?"
