RE: 4715: The Year of the Rooster - What to expect? (with original art)
Hey sweets, looks like you and my husband have the same sign ;) The Chinese buffet we go to used to have a chart underneath the laminate, but for some reason they called it the Year of the Boar not the pig, I wonder why that is.
I've heard it called both. I'm half wondering if it might be a translation thing.
My mother used to be all excited about the Chinese New Year (which I thought was odd being that she's Korean). When she first told me I was a PIG I was totally insulted! LOL Like, why couldn't I be a Dragon or Tiger or something cool -- a pig?!? bah! (Western thinking, perhaps?)
That's exactly what I was wondering, if they changed it for the great American ego, hahaha!!
