Happy Chinese New Year!


Today is the Chinese New Year. This year is the Year of the Dragon. How will you celebrate?

According to the Internets:

Expect this to be a very energetic year, filled with optimism, power, and entrepreneurship. However, the year is of the water dragon, which means that even the most powerful will give a patient hearing to the weaker, and will try to see through their point of view. Better alliances and decision will take place.


Will the politicians follow this prediction? Try to see each other's point of view? Don't hold your breath.

Optimism and power? That does sound positive.

Through my surfing adventure this morning, I learned that my Chinese zodiac sign in the pig. Not thrilled about that. However, I did learn that I'm a good match to my rooster husband and am seen as "nobel and chivalrous" and my "friends will be lifelong." Aww, shucks.

Do you think my boss would buy it if I told her it's a holiday and skip out early? I'm in the mood to sip tea, barefoot in an embroidered floral silk dress.

Did an Internet search. Better be careful. Did your butt get photographed when you were unaware?

Is it OK to own a Canadian?

In her radio show, Dr Laura Schlesinger said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, written by a U.S. resident, and posted on the Internet. It's funny, as well as informative: Dear Dr. Laura: Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination ... End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them. 1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexic...

What's in a name? Everything.

I'm appalled. You can call it King or Duke or Princess or M'lady of Everloving Windsor. But you cannot call it Queen. It is not Queen. Will never be Queen again. Freddie Mercury was the heart and soul and voice and face and pianist and songwriter and co-founder of that '70s & '80s phenomenal English rock band. Yet, guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor have trotted some singer named Paul Rodgers on stage, on tour, on a new album, and are calling themselves Queen. Technically, they're referring to themselves as Queen + Paul Rodgers. I'm sorry, but two washed-up has-been musicians and some former singer for Bad Company does not somehow magically make it OK to blaspheme Freddie like this. The band HE fronted was the one inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. MTV named Mercury the second greatest singer in the history of popular music. I realize that many bands suffer this fate as members retire or die and others t...
