I'm not sure that is what "homemade" means.

I do applaud your choice of pie, though.

You know what's a great meal to have before pie?

Steak.

Uh, yeah. That was what I was going for.

Yup, had nice NY strip for dinner.
Pie for desert and the appropriate members of the family were informed of the holiday this AM.

Hey, Black Sails I'd on tonight.

This is going to be great for the ACC.

I had a nice NY strip with an espresso rub that the owner of Palisades gave me while I was there celebrating my birthday recently. No pi, but since its the most represented ratio in the universe, I think it's ok.

Oh yeah! 3/14/15 at 9:26 and 53 seconds!

Haha, well done. I wasn't confident enough to get the 53 seconds

Counterpoint: Googled pi and got:
3.14159265359
I think we'd all agree that 3.1415 is the date (3/14/15)
But I'd contend that .00009265359 is a fraction of a day. Since the date is already accounted for by the first five significant digits, the remaining digits should represent the fraction of the day that should pass before the actual 'pi time'. This would be 92.65359% of the way through the calendar date, that would mean:
24 hours x 60 min/hr x 60 sec/min = 86,400 seconds in a day
86400 x .92653659 = 80052.70176 seconds into March 14th, 2015 is the pi time
80052.70176 / 60 sec/min = 1334.211696 minutes into March 14th...
1334.211696 / 60 min/hr = 22.2368616 hours into March 14th

So I'm proposing 10:14:13 PM on March 14th, 2015 is pi time

but pi(e) occurs throughout the universe. Does cake?

There's always a lighthouse. There's always a man. There's always a city.

Had a French Silk made by my wife to celebrate. Fantaburific!

Happy PI day plus one. My daughter was born yesterday at 2:10 PM. So we are team pie for life. Even at her birthday parties.

Ohhh burn. No cakes at birthday parties. She may be the best-raised child out there.

Congrats.

Counterpoint: pi(e) goes on forever. #teampie

Counter-counterpoint: So you're saying that no one ever finishes pi(e)?

VTGuitarMan's picture VTGuitarMan

Only because the supply is never-ending. It's math.

rogue_nine9's picture rogue_nine9 | 11 years 3 months # ^

If the supply is so great, then there's obviously a lack of demand...though for someone like you that enjoys pie, high supply and low demand is a good thing since that would mean that pie is cheaper. #Ecconomics

Ah my cake-loving friend, but never-ending and ever-increasing are not the same. Pi(e) goes on forever because the demand is continual.

This banter is pi, because it's continuous and never-ending.

Always leave half for someone else.

This is going to be great for the ACC.
