A pie for Pi Day

Happy Pi Day, y'all.

Ian Chillag's girlfriend, Nora, celebrated by baking a pie. With pi on it. She said she would, in our pi-ku contest.

I wonder what decoration she'd put on top of a pie for National Pie Day. This year it was Jan. 23. She can check with the American Pie Council for next year's date.

Oh my word that pie was good. I only wish I had a third hand to shovel it into my face faster.

By the way, for Rachel - irrational numbers are numbers that can't be expressed as a fraction of two integers. ("Irrational" meaning unable of being expressed as a ratio, not your normal definition.)

Piday.org has links to the BPP blog entry in the "Pi Stuff" section of their website. The BPP really is the center of the universe.

dubious tip: the Pi PIE makes a both lovely and creepy desktop background

A better way of eating pi: found the Pi-O-Matic at the Pi Diner at the Pi Day site Pi Day International (http://pidayinternational.org/MILLIONS_OF_DIGITS_OF_PI_PIOMATIC/Millions_of_Digits_of_Pi_Pi-O-Matic.htm ). Dispenses millions of digits of pi, from snack size to all-u-can-eat. Perfect Pi Day lunch. yum. While I was there joined the World Federation of Pi.
