3/14/15. It will be another 100 years before it will be this perfect again. Thought I would convolve 2 days into one single render (I'm sure you can guess the other day; lol). :)

Not just any Pi day Tran; it's indeed 3/14/15 (or 3.1415; as perfect as you can get for at least another 100 years). :)

I looked it up and some people even gave a time so that it's accurate to 10 digits of Pi.
3/14/15 9:26:53 am and pm (or 9:26:54 and pm if you round the 11th digit[it's a 5])
Maybe a lot of people will start eating pies or throwing pies when this exact time occurs.

Yeah; when you add time to the date, you can definitely increase the accuracy. ;)

So i drove with my mom to get some coffee and stopped at "Save on Foods" and got 2 pies for 8 dollars.
And by 9:26 am - ish I was having pie.
Happy Pi day everyone :D

I used the auto-check-out and i think i jammed the machine with my 10 dollar bill (because it was folded funkily). So i was assisted by a clerk. She gave me change of 2 dollars and told me to just leave and she'll get someone to look at the machine, it looked like a paper jam according the screen on the machine, but instead of paper it was a bill jam.

next year can be special too because
3/14/16
is Pi rounded to the 4th decimal.
It just won't be as special as this year. :D

Please do not sharpen those pencils.
Otherwise you will lose a lot of information.

Thanks Doron.
