Hey, good call with starting this thread.



Some Chinese information about being born in 1967:

Sheep personality traits: The most creative sign in the Chinese zodiac, those born in the Year of the Sheep (also known as the Year of the Ram or Goat) are often artistic, sensitive, sweet and charming.

Shy by nature, Sheep are not the most practical of people and, although well-mannered, they occasionally may suffer from "foot-in-mouth disease" by saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. Still, with their considerable charm and innocence Sheep never lack for protective friends and admirers.


Outwardly dreamy and starry-eyed, Sheep are inwardly anxious, insecure, and usually find day-to-day living difficult and puzzling. As such, they often take refuge in religion, astrology or the occult.

Sheep are not overly ambitious, but once they find work that makes use of their considerable talents, they are passionate about what they do. Typically surrounded by beautiful things, Sheep have an ardent love of creature comforts and are almost always elegantly dressed, but can become overly reliant on appearances.

Conversely, Sheep people have an innate love of nature and are never happier than when messing about in the garden.

In business Sheep tend to be highly disorganized, but they usually enjoy great success as artists, actors, designers, and in many other creative endeavors.


Sheep are most compatible with: Rabbit, Pig, Horse


-Ahem, apropos of nothing, I'm a pig. On the Chinese zodiac I mean, thankyouverymuch!

Tavalodet Mobarak, Ms. J!

Damn. I'm a tiger. That doesn't rule out the coffee idea, does it, coolbyrne?

Have a good one, MJ! (And yeah, seeing more of you on-screen would be great.)

"........Fraggle said to Mandana that they should come for a coffee instead of going to the Met Bar. Mandana said she didn't really want to go to the Met Bar..... so Fraggle asked her why she was going. She said it was because she was a sheep!! "

"You know what you really need to get? A jacket" (Mandana) - I was wearing a very thin sleeveless top and nothing else and it was freezing! "Don't you think I should get a life first?" (Me) "Probably, but start with a jacket" (Mandana)

Ha! Class, absolute class. Thanks for the link, TC. Makes me wish I'd been around back in the good old days.

LOL! I'm going to start a thread for articles, either from newspapers or online, for us n00bs who missed out on a lot of this, because this link is completely new to me! Thanks!

Just to bump this up again, as today's the big birthday of Mandana. Hope the day's lovely and you're not getting the two feet of snow I'm getting right now!

Almost missed this thread but just in time to wish you a very happy 'life begins' birthday.

Oh....I almost missed the big day! With an hour or so to spare....HAPPY BIRTHDAY MANDANA JONES!!! Life begins at 40! (Well, that's what they used to tell me at any rate.) I hope you had a wonderful day! (Like she'll ever read this but we can always hope.)

I always post with the idea in mind that she will read it. Whether it's true or not, it keeps me polite and (hopefully!) free of allergens. (You know- nut-free. )

I didn't purposely miss leaving birthday wishes- I was just holding my breath all weekend awaiting the fate of the Canadian mens' hockey team at the Olympics. However, the 26th was a good day for me, as the Canadians beat the Russians. Hope it was a good day for you, too, Mandana, on the off-off-off chance you ever read this! ;D
