The Year of the Fire Horse

According to the Chinese calendar, we will not be chasing after snakes, monkeys, or roosters. Beginning in February of 2026, this is the year of the Fire Horse. Honestly, I don’t know what that means. But as long as I don’t have to feed it, I’m good.

Out of curiosity, I checked my birth year and discovered I was born in the Year of the Fire Monkey. That sounds more fortuitous than the Wood Sheep or Metal Rat. And even if it isn’t, I’ve decided it is.

After consulting the Chinese calendar, I did what anyone would do and searched for “random stuff on the web.” The third result was a video titled The WEIRDEST Websites That Actually Exist. I watched enough of it so you don’t have to. Consider it a public service.

Have a great start to your new year. I’ve posted the video here for those of you who don’t know better.
