And to you!
Also I think this is the Buddhist New Year as well (at least for my Vietnamese friend, though I understand that different Buddhists celebrate at different times).
Happy New Year all around!!

And to you, too! Are there any public celebrations in your neck of the woods?

With our large (ca. 30% of the population) Chinese community here, Chinese New Year is a big thing. But for some reason, here it's referred to as the Year of the Boar. Which is stupid, as even I know it's supposed to be Pig. I think it's just a bad marketing ploy, as for the non-asian population pigs have a bad rap.

Dumb dumb dumb.

We have some people talking about the "Year of the Boar" here too.

Why people think "Pig" is a dirty word and on that sounds like "Year of the Bore" is preferable is a mystery to me. But what do I know?
