I am nothing if not a creature of habit. I have an innate drive within me to continue traditions. Traditions bind us together. They give us a sense of stability, predictability and G-d knows these days we need more of that. There's a silly little tradition that I have with my childhood friends that has been going on around 40 years which, ironically, falls out on the saddest day of the Jewish calendar. On a day where you aren't supposed to officially greet anyone, one year we started using a local radio show program's promo tag, "K104 Wins Big Bucks", in place of "hello". Every year since, we either call each other up with that line or post it on social media. As I said, silly, but…it's a tradition.
