Weird TraditionsTalking with a friend yesterday about school dinners, she suddenly said, "We had to march into the dining room behind the School Band... except on Thursdays." Since all of us were now staring, she qualified this with, "...on Thursdays there was no wind section. It was a tradition."
What weird stuff have you been made to do "because it's a tradition."

Hooray for Eastern EuropeansI was discussing Easter with a very nice Czech girl I met once. As you would imagine, I was very interested to discover that it's a Czech tradition to chase girls around and whip them with willow branches every Easter. Why don't we have traditions like that?
