It's Sunday the 10th. I won't be able to come on TI this weekend with all the festivities and family visiting going on, so I wanted to wish everyone a very prosperous year

it is better to be born in the year of Snake. Too many babies were born in the previous year and the competition to top colleges will be fierce.

Unless you have Qwerty's kid. His kid will receive affirmative preferences over all dragon babies. Apparently this is the second incentive in marrying a Mexican.

Allow me to narrow the cultural gap. The big red character (not the English ones) means Fortune/Luck.
The snake part on the left, in its original form, means Clothing. On the right hand side, the top bar/dash, together with the square immediately beneath it, means, One Mouth/One Person. The lower right square with a cross in the middle means Field, as in Rice Field. So loosely speaking, it was considered fortunate if you had cloth and a piece of land to make a living out of.
I'm sure my ancestors were fully seized of the additional needs, such as companionship and a roof (preferably with a 3CWG), for one to consider oneself whole and blessed. But they had 79999+ more characters to work out. So chop chop, here it is.

Why make me a partner when you could have the profit all to yourself. The only upfront cost is a red towel. I could refer a bunch of Asian cuckolds' wives to you free of charge.

PS9, want to tell us what is in the photos? I only have guesses for most of it. Tell me if I'm close:
- Pic 1
Crab Soup w/ tofu and big balls of (?) fisherman's bread
- Pic 2
Shrimp with the shell and LEGS(!)
No idea what the seasoning could be. I'm going to say they are grilled.
- Pic 3
Fried crab legs
- Pic 4
This one I have the most trouble figuring out.
100 year old or 1,000 y.o. eggs (can't remember which one it's called). Slices of duck. The stuff that looks like slices of French baguette - I have no clue -- sea urchin?? Oh, wow. GEODUCK?!? At 1 o'clock: shiny, pickled fish?... seaweed?... no idea.
- Bottom Pic
Easy. Meatballs made from ground beef. Sliced mushroom and water chestnuts(? the pale slices). Not sure what that fish-shaped thing is. It's either a fish or a hot pepper.
