    I'm the body of the metal cock.

    I remember when I was a kid thinking how lame a rooster sign was. Then I got older and wiser, and realized it was AWESOME.

    Oh, and yeah, happy Chinese New Year!

    To those that understand: Gong Xi Fa Cai!

    And to others: Happy Year of the Ox!

    'Congratulations'? is that all it means? I thought it was a typical Mandarin Chinese new year greeting.

    Bah! I'm Chinese but i speak none of the language!

    Gong Xi means congratulations.
    I'm assuming the rest is something along the lines of 'happy new year'?
