    So a tiger might have been born in 1938 1950 1962 1974 1986 1998 or 2010. That narrows it down.

    Happy Lunar New Year! We had a simple dinner last night and kids were super happy to celebrate. Wishing you a prosperous new year with lots of purchase, equity and cash.

    Prior to dinner I took my in-laws to the Fish Market (its kinda famous to Chinese in China) and there were the lion dancers right outside one of the fish markets doing their dance... big crowd...all clapping.. then they did a couple of rolls as they usually do but on the last roll they must have miscalculated and rolled straight into a table taking it (and everything on it) out clean!:eek:

    I'm guessing you're not 2010, and therefore the forum's youngest member.

    '74 is correct. I'm unashamedly 41. Old enough to tell you off, young enough to get into trouble still.

    Dragons are super cool. When we were in China and my kids were spending a lot of time with the Chinese kids they noticed that all the kids had an English name and insisted that they get a Chinese name. My 9yo boy decided Dragon would be his Chinese name so we called him Long. My 7yo daughter decided she wanted to be Dolphin so we called her Haitun.

    Happy Chinese New Year guys.
    It seems that one of my tenants wants a red packet from me in the form of air cooling system and fly trap.
