Who doesn't love a golden pig?  In 2007, my Chinese friends told me it was my "golden" year because I was turning 60 (5 times the Chinese astrological calendar which has 12 years) and I think I've had this pig since that year.  I'm curious about what animal year the friends here on blipfoto were born in......if you don't know, send me your birthdate and I can look it up for you!  [email="skjellison@aol.com"]skjellison@aol.com[/email] is my email address.  It's actually a lot of fun to learn about the Chinese astrology and the characteristics of the various animal years is sometimes very accurate!
