When i get close to almost any kind of edible pi pie, they just start shaking in their pans, because they know that getting eaten is a forgone conclusion.

"In those rare moments of total quiet with a dark sky, I again feel the awe that struck me as a child. The feeling is utterly overwhelming as my mind races out across the stars. I feel peaceful and serene."
Pi Day, the informal holiday beloved by math enthusiasts – and even by the math averse – is almost here! March 14 marks the yearly celebration of the mathematical constant (pi), which represents the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. More than just a number for mathematicians, pi has all sorts of applications in the real world, including on missions developed by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. And as a holiday that encourages more than a little creativity – whether it’s making pi-themed pies or reciting from memory as many of the never-ending decimals of pi as possible (the record is 70,030 digits) – it’s a great way to have fun and celebrate the M in STEM. ...

<<Stephen William Hawking CH CBE FRS FRSA (8 January 1942 – 14 March 2018) was born on 8 January 1942 in Oxford to Frank (1905–1986) and Isobel Hawking (née Walker; 1915–2013). His mother was Scottish. Despite their families' financial constraints, both parents attended the University of Oxford, where Frank read medicine and Isobel read Philosophy, Politics and Economics. The two met shortly after the beginning of the Second World War at a medical research institute where Isobel was working as a secretary and Frank was working as a medical researcher. They lived in Highgate; but, as London was being bombed in those years, Isobel went to Oxford to give birth in greater safety. Hawking had two younger sisters, Philippa and Mary, and an adopted brother, Edward.>>
In Swedish, "pi" and "pie" are not pronounced the same way at all. Well, "pie" ("paj" in Swedish) is pronounced mostly the same way as in English, but the letter "pi" is pronounced "pee". (Yes. Then again, the Swedish equivalent of "pee" - which I'm not teaching you - is not pronounced like the letter pi.)
So anyway, a Swedish scientist tried to explain to Swedes why March 14 is "Pi Day". I liked it when he said that in order to celebrate Pi Day, you should eat "round food"!
