It's hilarious. Go to Google images and search the above, and you'll get a little chuckle. Why am I talking about monkeys riding dogs? Well, it all started at the dinner table on Sunday evening with the family. We were talking about when we would have babies. My mother actually freaked out a bit when I told her that Joyce and I want to have babies in the year of the dragon. She said, "What? How am I going to take care of both babies?" HAH! 
By the way, my mom has decided to retire in 2012, the year of the dragon. That led to us talking about the different personalities of each animal and how compatible they are. For example, Joyce is a horse and her husband is a dragon, both strong and intelligent animals (although dragons are mythical). So my parents said they are quite compatible. Then I thought about Roger and me. He's a dog, and I'm a monkey. At first, I just laughed thinking about their compatibility, but my mother immediately said that's a great match since both animals are quite energetic. I had to look it up. So I did a search and found this Australian astrology website. They have a section for Chinese Zodiac Sign Compatibility. You enter in the birthday of you and your love and voila, it tells you how compatible you are. It even tells you the compatibility percentage. I know what you must be thinking, do you really believe in this crap? Umm...kinda? It's fun. Check out what it says about Roger and me.
While there may be some differences, the Monkey and the Dog's energy level and love will make this a natural pairing. As lovers, they have the potential for happiness as long as the Dog feels the Monkey can be trusted. Their overall compatibility rating is 80%. What? As long as the dog feels the monkey can be trusted? Hmmm. Then, I started playing around with different couples I know - Joyce and her husband and Ken and his girlfriend. They all came out pretty positive. I thought maybe they were all positive, but then I put in something random and it came out like 50% compatible. After doing this, I decided to post about it and wanted an image of a monkey and a dog to post with my entry. I ended up finding all these pictures of a monkey riding a dog. I believe that all the pictures are of the same monkey and dog. Anyway, I ended up finding an image I liked. I think it sums up our relationship. HAH! Just kidding. Maybe. What does the Chinese Zodiac Sign Compatibility website say about you and your love?

Chris is a goat, and I am a monkey. Here is what it says about us:
The
fun-loving Monkey may prove to be too much for the sensitive Goat. As lovers,
the Monkey's need for a crowd will upset the more introverted Goat and doom any
chance of true intimacy. Their overall compatibility rating is 50%.
Uh oh!
@SMcK - WHA??? OK, it's crap!
I'm a monkey and Mr F is a dog also. That picture is HILARIOUS and represents how I think we are.
Ha Ha... This what it said about Dave & I...
Is this why we butt head so often.
The Monkey and Rooster are so different they may have difficulty
maintaining a relationship of any kind. Both will vie for control. The
Rooster will find the Monkey to be an extreme showoff. The Monkey may
consider the Rooster a stick in the mud. It is hard to envision this
pairing as successful lovers. Their overall compatibility rating is 40%.
I am a horse, and Jeff is a rooster. Here is what it said about us:
While the Horse is unpredictable and free-spirited and the Rooster is a perfectionist, these two make a very good pair. As lovers they may suffer from friction caused by the Rooster's pickiness and the Horse's independence. Their overall compatibility rating is 60%.
When I read it to Jeff, he said. "I'm not picky. And I'm more independently-minded than you. No offense." Ummmmmm......none taken?
@auyell0grl - so are you an extreme showoff? NO WAY! this is bogus! haha!
@douglasm - HAHA! oh man!
