Pi Day.......

 I was at work today and was browsing the news online and came across this news article and found it cool and interesting and thought I would share it, and of course partake in this silly and somewhat nerdy day!

Pi Day was dreamed up 27 years ago to celebrate 3.14 on 3/14, but this year the geek dial is being turned up to 15 — as in 3/14/15. And this'll be the only year until 2115 that you can turn the dial up to the max, at 3/14/15, 9:26:53, an exact match for pi's first 10 digits.

Wacky or wise?
That relativistic twist in pi may sound wacky, but it's particularly apt this year — because 3/14 also marks Albert Einstein's birthday, and 2015 marks the 100th anniversary of his general relativity theory.  (I thought it was a cool tidbit of information!)

We also partook in some Pizza Pi for dinner as well.
