Ultimate Pi Day (Contest Alert)

Have you checked out the date today?!  Today just so happens to be 3-14 or in the  world of Geeks, Pi Day. As 3.14 is the short short short version for the symbol Pi. (Click here for more info on Pi.) Not to mention one of the Geeks of ALL Geeks, Albert Einstein, just so happens to have his birthday fall on 3-14. Seriously! It is quite a celebrated day. The College Kids at Princeton REALLY get into it each year. Just check this out.

As if Pi Day wasn’t enough..today is ULTIMATE Pi Day…go ahead start geeking out!  Just what is Ultimate Pi Day?  At exactly 9:26:53 am this morning it will be 3.141592653 the EXACT starting sequence of Pi…AND for a brief moment between 9:26:53 am and 9:26:54 am that the clock will match Pi down to an infinite number of digits…pretty cool huh?  Enjoy it while it lasts, because it won’t happen again for another century!

So just why are we sharing all of this with you?  Because when we think of Pi Day…we think of PIE!!  So in honor of all the geeky nerds, nerdy geeks, and all in between…WE ARE GIVING AWAY PIE. WOOHOO!! Mmmmmmmmm PIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEE!

Because “It’s a Wonderful Day for Pie”…

  1. Today is wonderful for pie because math geekiness with nearly the same amount kinds of pie is thee best day ever. With custards, fruits, and even meats combined in the pastry can make nearly anyone smile. Especially with the cool whip (yep, emphasise the “w” like a good Stewie fan!) on top.

  44. Pie me addicts because I have a quote from The Rock (now known as Dwayne “the tooth fairy” Johnson) way back from 1998. “Let me ask you one question Michael Cole. Do you like….pie? I’m not not about blueberry pie pecan pie or sweeeeet banana cream pie. I’m talking about that poo tang (wiggles his tongue alot) pie Micheal Cole. The best kinda pie in the land” and that is why I think everyday is a good day for pie. 😉
