Tomorrow is Pi day!
Anyone have any mathematics stories or anecdotes they would like to share? Are you going to do anything special for it? maybe calculate Pi further than anyone has so far.

Hopefully we can convince my calculus teacher to let us eat pi instead of class!! We'll see how that goes.

This year is only approximately pi≈3.1416, the exact pi=3.141592653.... was last year so I had my celebratory slice at the exact irrational moment shortly before half past nine
This year I find it fitting to approximate pi with a cake

A college band's MIT cheer...
e to the x,
dx, dy
e to the y,
dy
cosine, secant, tangent, sine,
3.14159
C'mon (insert college name here), give 'em a digit!
(Then of course the band would extend a particular digit in the direction of the opposing team and fans across the stadium)
