Happy Chinese New Year!!!

Have you made any New Year resolution for your year of Ox? I read a news about a Frenchman who broke the Guinness World Record for the longest nonstop speech by talking for 124 hours (The Liberty Times自由時報, 2008/1/21). Wow…. that's 5 days and four nights. Didn't he have to drink and eat? This man is really something, isn't he?

So, make wishes. May your wishes come true~~~~
