I just found out that I'm not a dog like I thought I was -- in Chinese Year terms anyway. Apparently, since Chinese New Year didn't happen till January 25th in 1982, I'm stuck in the previous year's animal, metal rooster.

That's kinda weird.

Wow, I'm almost exactly twelve years older than you are.

When I discovered that I had not been born in the year of the dog, it was from a book on Chinese astrology that informed me I was, instead, an Iron Cock.

It really amuses me to be an Iron Cock. It's especially amusing to say so at parties, though I have to be careful about which parties I say it at.

Ha! Yes, join me in being a Rooster In a Cage.

I don't think I particularly like the true Chinese name. It kind of doesn't measure up to things like "Tiger Stalking Through the Forest", or "Ascending Dragon", really.
