12-12-12

Yes, that's the date today. I couldn't let today go by without at least mentioning it. And I apologize to all my millions (approximate number) of daily readers for not updating here on a more regular basis. I've been busy and I do have some other blogs that I also write. Not a good excuse, but what can I say?

Anyway, it's the 12th day, 12th month of 2012, so a neat number. There is a concert going on today, The Concert for Sandy Relief. It's a good idea and I hope they raise lots of money for all the victims.

We won't have another opportunity this century to have a date like today, mostly because we don't have a 13th month. With enough effort, that could be changed, but nah, that's not going to happen. We will have to wait for 2101 on January 1 for a neat date again. Let me know how it goes, I won't be here to celebrate that date.

And even though it is a special date, it doesn't really mean anything special. Yesterday was a good day and I expect tomorrow will be great too. It's what you make of it. So celebrate today, but celebrate tomorrow and next week also.

Pi Day, Pi Day

I wish I could take credit for the title, but actually I Googled pi day and then looked at Images and saw that. Figured it was cute and so I put it here.

So, Happy Pi Day. I celebrated by going to our local Pizza Pi place and buying a pizza for $3.14! It was delicious, even if it was not perfectly round.

For those who have been waiting for the next installment of the value of Pi, here is an update from last year.
