Happy Pi Day!

Today is Pi Day (3/14). I guess if you write dates the European way, Pi Day would be July 22 (22/7). At any rate, in honor of Pi Day, I had pie, and (because my knitting hasn't progressed in any interesting fashion) I'm giving you a few links about Pi and knitting ;-)

You didn't tell us what kind of pie you had-
sorry, one track mind. (food)

Happy Pi Day! I told the receptionist at the orthodontist's office that it was Pi Day, and got no response. Then I told her that last year I'd made a pie with the top crust vented with a pi symbol. Still no response. I guess some people just aren't geeks. Now, if I'd only managed to post this comment on 3.14 at 1:59. . . I'll go back to knitting before I lose it completely.

I had no pie for Pi day. It was rather sad but pie would've cost me money (and with the dining hall closed this week I'm low on spending money anyway) but I still managed to enjoy the day by hiking with a fellow geek and discussing how our families celebrate the day.
