it being the holiday season and all i began to wonder how traditions get started;
more individual traditions than societal.
like, my Freezing Man tradition has become rather complex in the few short years its been celebrated.
what do other people do for new years?
and why?
how did it start?
and how did that robert burns poem get so popular so fast and become so closly linked to new years?
what did they sing before he wrote that?
or did he just write down something that had been tradition for so long before?
