Kris, you can Google further for the specific kinds of dragons.
According to the Chinese zodiac, the Year of the Dragon comes once every 12 years. The dragon (龙 lóng) years of the last century were 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000, and 2012. The next Year of the Dragon will be 2024. People born in any of these years are dragons.Feb 5, 2022
Cool - I check Google and found out I'm a Wood Dragon. Since you're a Water Dragon, you were either born 12 years before me or you just turned 11 :lol:

Nah, cuz I'd end up getting some ugly shade of brown (they're all ugly, IMO) since I'm wood. Blech.

Apparently, I'm a fire rooster. I have to admit, it suits me. But I'd rather be a dragon.

We had a Sony reel-to-reel VTR in middle school in 1971, IIRC it looked similar to some of those Sony units but was more industrial (because middle-schoolers)

Oh! I didn't even think about that, or some of the reddish-toned woods (like mahogany). OK. That's not so bad then. And, now that I think about it a bit more, the wood dragon is actually more appropriate given that the war ships of the Vikings were known as Drakkar ships - or Dragon Ships, and often had a wooden dragon on the front!

I've been having a really off day, so the little adjustments in perspective are helping a lot! Thanks!

Burnt sienna is my favorite brown. Until this minute I didn’t know it’s the result of mixing orange and purple. ;)
