	Just for your refernce.  You are supposed to say "akemashite..." first
	on New Year's Day, and then so do to anybody you meet for th efirst time	in the
 new year.

	Before New Year's Day, you say;
		"Douzo yoi o-toshi wo (o-mukae kudasai)"
		       good  year        have
		Please (have) a good year.

	And we say "tori doshi" for the Year of Chicken in Japanese.



	Sore dewa Jim-san, douzo yoi o-toshi wo!!
