First Feeding

Congratulations, It's a Golden Piglet!

Golden_pig The lowly pig may finally be getting the respect it deserves, thanks to "Charlotte's Web," "Babe," "Olivia" and George Clooney. But its new-found stature here in the United States is nothing compared to the porcine adolation of adherents of the Chinese zodiac.

People born in the year of the pig are supposed to be generous, hard-working and loyal. Even better, golden piggies, which come around only once every 60 years, have the propensity to make piles of money. 2007 is such a year. The result: a bumper crop of babies in China and Vietnam.

So if you're expecting (or have already delivered) this year, congrats!

If you're not, too bad. Just kidding! All the signs are great! Check them out here (including a handy calculator).
