A Place for Pi

Pi is an infinite decimal and an irrational number. 
           

I like to think that Merry Mount is the perfect place to celebrate  (π).
We continue to observe what seems like an infinite number of magnificent orbs.  Here are 3.14:







Rett will tell you that I can be irrational (I think that I am one of the most rational/logical people around).  For example, she thinks that my anger is often an irrational behavior, and in that case, I must agree.

Pi Day is a holiday that is celebrated on March 14th every year. This day was created to celebrate the mathematical constant π. It falls on 3/14 since three, one and four are the first three digits of PI. It is a holiday that has been celebrated large-scale since 1988.

So on this Pi Day I leave you with these words and images:

Eat more pie







 and

There once was a rational guy,
Who’s behavior became awry,
His face would turn red,
T’was “out of his head”,
He recovered by reciting π.
