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."

A new traditionwas started with my kids and me as we travel northward to visit family, from Virginia to New York.
Ever see the movie "The Lion King"? Remember the opening sequence, of the sunrise over the African plain, with some guy yelling something in some odd language, which then segued into the song "Circle of Life"? It always sounded to me like the guy was screaming, "Peeeeeennsylvaniaaaa!"
So now as we travel along I-81, when we reach the border of that state, one of us screams out, "Peeeeeennsylvaniaaaa welcomes you!"
I have the feeling that that tradition will be passed down...
