Chung Hay Fat Choy

Okay, he's not our favorite vegetarian - in fact he was not even close to being a vegetarian but John Wayne was always kind to animals, orphans and women which earns him, in our opinion, a mention on this Chinese New Year's Day as one of the good guys, Rooster Gogburn, Texas Ranger.

It is the year of the Rooster, the twelfth part of the Chinese zodiac which represents a sense of self confidence and new beginnings. If you are fortunate enough to have been born under the sign of the 'Rooster' you are capable of anything and people will follow; you were born to 'strut and crow' and perhaps, who knows, with this New Year's resolution - become vegetarian.

Happy New Year Rooster.
