On March 14, we celebrate Pi Day in the U.S, kind of a nerd celebration. I say in the U.S because it only really works for us (and Belize) because of a date format we use (MM.DD.YY) hence 3.14 (March 14) is Pi Day. This year is special. 2015 has been called the Pi Day of the century because on March 14, 2015 at 26 minutes and 53 seconds after 9 AM the date and time will be 3.14.15 9:26:53 or π to 10 digits, 3.141592653.
Here's an ode to Pi Day. I actually wrote it for the Plethora of Pies contest last fall, where it took a whopping HM.
There are actually 35 "pi" sounds embedded in the poem. Can you find them all?
