So I don't know how many of you know it, but today is Pi-day. The ultimate Pi-moment has passed for me already, but for some of you it may be only 15 mins away.
Now, what actually is this Pi-day stuff? It basically means that, using the US date notation, today is 3/14/15, which is the first few digits of the mathematical number Pi. This will not occur again for another century.
The ultimate Pi moment was at 9:26 Pm (technically, Am was the true true moment, but screw 24-h notation for now), as it would be 3/14/15 9:26:54 at one point, which is the digits for Pi that show up on most scientific calculators. It's nothing major, but you might enjoy the poem about it I made (link in sig).
It's got an easter egg, if you find out what it is say 'found it' (do NOT actually say what it is please), and let's see how many people can find it!
Update: I will reveal the easter egg 24 hours from now!
Update: it's been 30 hours now, here is the solution:
3 Many years ago
1 Today
4 There was a man
1 Archimedes
5 who had a pi-related plan
9 To give a square twice more the corners it had
2 and again
6 repeating infinitley on a writing pad
5 Thus coming closer to perfect
3 Circle shape than
5 Anyone before him ever had
8 between two numbers it would lie, numbers small
9 enough to let those that followed him decide upon
7 the number now called Pi to add
9 seventy-one digits to its name and number, at once
4 together in a bunch
2 Now Archimedes
3 made a feat
8 the only number in the world we eat
=
Pi!

I still have a good 4 hours until it is 3.14.15 9:26:53 for me.

That's all I know lol. Also, is the easter egg a....*does not say*
I wish more people thought about Pie. Only one Pi Day skin, one blog, and no texture packs or mods. What has the world come to?
(Lol....)

I've still got like, an hour or something. No, wait. 40 minutes. 43 minutes. Yup.
Personally, I use the 24-hour notation but I'm not a morning person, so I'll use the 12-hour thingy for now.
What's so special about this anyway :3?
Whoops, 39 minutes now.

It will only happen once every 100 years I believe.
I'm just glad it was on a saturday. That let me eat pie for breakfast (at 9:26 and 53 seconds, of course), pizza pie for lunch, spaghetti pie for dinner, and soon to be more pie later tonight (again, at 9:26 and 53 seconds). Usually I can convince my math teacher to let us bring pie in on pi day, but doing it all day is much better in my opinion.
Also, fun pizza fact: If a pizza has a radius "z" and a height "a", its volume is pi*z^2*a, or "pizza".

Pizza math! Also, (pi*z^2)*a. Just in case.
Awh, you guys made a holiday for me <3
I wish my family got us a pie today :L
Happy pi day?

I believe it is actually ULTIMATE PI DAY.
Because 3.1415 = 3/14/15
Aw shoot, I was too late.. ;_;
Heyyy I got my Raspberry Pi in the mail today xD

Printed out a couple of Mc Donald's pie stickers at ultimate pi. Would have gotten it to the second, but the seconds don't display on them

Not so good when it's 14/03! (Worst thing about British time!)
happy Pi day! Also I think I found it! Why it only happen every 100 years?? Also who made a Pi day skin??
Ayy, was the best day ever yesterday.
English competition turned out to be easy, finished all I had to do for Monday and beat my personal record in swimming.
...too bad there won't be another one for another 100 years >_>
Though, the only thing I can think of is 3.1415, never bothered to learn anything else.
Because it's only once in 100 years you can get 15 as the last numbers in a year, it can be 3/14 any year, but it can only be 3/14/15 once every 100.
Also I realized that on 3/14 in like 1592 at 6:53 it would be even better. Sadly, no time machines.

Yay for you! I had a pretty boring Pi day. Oh yeah 100 years thing makes sense now. Also yeah ima invent a time machine in the future purely to go to Pi day! xD
Today is also Sonoda Umi from Love Live's birthday.
I only memorized 12 numbers:
3.14159265358
3.14159265358
I have Pulled Pork BBQ pie for breakfast yesterday. It was delicious.
i had nacho pi for dinner yesterday.
Pi is 3.1415926535
Pi is 3.1415926535
It's approximately 3.1415926535. Pi is irrational, which means that it can't be expressed as a fraction and, as a decimal, goes on endlessly and doesn't repeat.
yep, Pi goes on forever and always will. however, that abbreviation is the one most significant to 'everyday' mathematics.
