I am now eating TEH PIE. It was indeed served at 1:59 pm and is upside-down apple pecan pie. There is also cherry, blueberry, and key lime.

― Jordan (Jordan), Monday, 14 March 2005 20:02 (twenty years ago)

Oh yeah, an especially happy Pi Day to you, Ned!

Yes! John Derbyshire has now mentioned my Pi CD again on the NRO blog! What a weird world:

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 14 March 2005 21:39 (twenty years ago)

Pi day is cool! It means free pizza and temporary pi tattoos in the math library, which of course is always classic.

― Maria (Maria), Monday, 14 March 2005 21:44 (twenty years ago)

The pie actually wasn't that good. Very sugary and preservative-heavy. I would have preferred pizza, or maybe they could have sprung for chocolate pie.

― Jordan (Jordan), Monday, 14 March 2005 21:52 (twenty years ago)

It's 3/14 at 1:59 where I am!

― Casuistry (Chris P), Monday, 14 March 2005 22:00 (twenty years ago)

Hah! I was given the Pi screenplay w/Aronofsky's "Guerilla Diaries" for my birthday - I totally forgot about Pi Day and didn't make the connection!

I love that movie. The screenplay is mighty badly written though.

What did you do at 3:14 this morning and this afternoon?

In the UK, of course, Pi Day isn't until April 31st

― caitlin (caitlin), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 12:04 (twenty years ago)

Can't we celebrate both?

What about phi day? Could either be Jan 6th @ 1803 or 1st June at 1803. OR we could figure out when 0.61803399 of the year has gone by and celebrate it then.

― hmmm (hmmm), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 12:09 (twenty years ago)

I make phi day to be July 13th.

― hmmm (hmmm), Tuesday, 15 March 2005 12:12 (twenty years ago)

In the UK, of course, Pi Day isn't until April 31st

Which means there is no Pi Day in the UK.

Hurrah for Pi Day! (Of course, technically it happened at 1:59 this morning, but I wasn't awake.)

― Failure Isn't Falling, It's Staying Down (kate), Tuesday, 14 March 2006 11:21 (nineteen years ago)

Pi day is July 22.
March is Biblical Pi Month.

I do have to admit there's a barely controllable urge to mix sounds under it so it would sound like you're having all sorts of adventures while reciting Pi.
Walking around, going for a swim, driving a car, being chased by police, having a car crash, assisting in childbirth, etc.

We had 18 mostly home-baked pies, a competition on taste/perfect circular form/looks/originality, and a fiendish quiz (I got 3/10). Taste winner was a strawberry-rhubarb.

or do an 'e' remix
