When was the last time you saw an 8 page article in vanity fair. I can’t remember. Much less an article like this. With all the recent blockbusters featuring citizens of various African nations i don’t mean to bore you with more of the same but you should take a look at this. It has nothing to do with my neighborhood directly but indirectly it affects us all and our economy; can you say gas prices. At least it its a riveting piece of ‘wordsmanship” just like that word i made up that i believe you would find rather entertaining. Take a chance and read all eight pages if your not entertained i guarantee you your money back.

According to the Lunar calendar this year will be year 4705, the year of the pig. This year’s Chinese New Year begins this Sunday, February 18th, 2007. The celebration of the new year continues for fifteen consecutive days, which means the celebration will end on the next full moon. Chinese New Year celebrated in the motherland, China is much more traditional than it is in New York City. Even though there is a difference, the celebrations in New York City are just as ravishing as the ones in China.
There will be many events taking place in Chinatown starting this weekend to welcome the Lunar New Year. For more information please check out: Explore Chinatown’s homepage.
