Guest guest Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 Another chance at a brand new year (for those who have already broken their New Year resolutions for 2007) and a great reason for everyone to celebrate! Lunar year 4704-4705, DingHal, The Year of the Pig begins tomorrow 18 February. Is anyone celebrating in a big way? A small way? And what are you doing to mark the occasion? Does your city/town have a parade? Pig Years: 1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019, 2031 Pig personality traits: Intellectually curious, honest and tolerant, those born in the Year of the Pig can be relied upon for their loyalty and often make true friends for life. . . .
