My name is Frank (or MrSpock, because of my ears and my dream). I have started programming in 1985 and I work as a software developer now. I am basically both an old-school programmer (started with Pascal) and a new one (a child of the Internet era HTML, PHP) at the same time. I have basically lost a decade in the programming world. Losing the nineties is not as bad as it seems; I skipped the Windows era ;-) My dream in life is to develop affordable space travel and space tourism. As a result I also love collecting space related photos made by both pro's and amateurs. One of own personal problems is that I tend to become an expert of a subject very quickly, so I have to keep changing subject often in order to stay sufficiently ignorant :-) This is why I am interested in many topics and many languages. Fortunately space travel has so far proven to be so complex that it will keep my attention for a long time :-) I'm usually more of just a lurker on the net but I'll chime in when I feel I need to, looking forward to meeting everyone and being a part of the community! Well I won't bore you guys and girls any longer, see you all around! Hi, folks. My name is Frank (or MrSpock, because of my ears and my dream).

It's interesting that "guo nian" may also be translated as "the passover of the year". And the red couplets on the door frames are similar to the blood of lambs smeared. On a similar note, Chinese people like to have phrases which sounds auspicious. E.g. "nien nien yu yue" (may there be surpluses every year). That's just one example. In my book, that's very Biblical - similar to the proclamation of good things over one's life.

We are having a Chinese New Years party tomorrow with our friends from China and families formed through Chinese adoption and now the noise makers our children are making will make more sense to me!
