Happy Pi Day!
3/14 – also known as Pi day for geeks and fun lovers everywhere! Here are some fun facts about Pi so you can impress your friends with your knowledge: In the first 100,000 digits of Pi, the number that occurs most frequently is 1.

In other parts of the world, July 22 — 22/7 — is another popular choice for Pi Day. So you can celebrate twice if you want! Memorizing large strings of the digits of pi through the use of various mnemonic techniques is called piphilology. John and I celebrated Pi Day…

I…

Two generations of sisters, what could be more fun?? They’d already had a few drinks when I arrived so I had a quick couple glasses of champagne and was soon in the festive …
