If you’re not keeping track (or even if you are) today ushers in the year of the sheep/goat.
Happy Tet to each of you!
I have no plans to shoot firecrackers (to scare away demons) or visit dead relatives, who are said to walk on the Day of the Dead/New Year. Neither do I plan to burn “hell money”. Nor will I bark at the Moon (any more often or with more gusto than I do now).
I suspect that today will be more or less like every other day for me.
I don’t know which Buddhist copied my
face for this mask — but job well done.

lol, I can hear them now… "please… do it again grandpa"!
"Year of the Goat" — that seems strangely appropriate, given our uniquely effective stance on countering Violent Extremism.
I woke up this morning, feeling like a goat. I'm glad it's official.
Maybe there's something to this.
"I" won't call you an old goat…today.
They do tend to do that.
Barking at the moon is underrated.
So I've heard.
