This year, Pi Day is not just any Pi Day. That's because, while the month and day, 3/14, are cause for celebration and veneration any other year, this time the year itself is getting into the act, thus: 3/14/15. And if you add a specific time into the mix, 3/14/15 9:27 or, better yet, 9:26:53 (a.m. or p.m.), well, it just doesn't get any better than that, does it? So, celebrate the number that helped build the world as we know it. You won't get another chance to do it this way for another hundred years (story, quiz): http://www.theage.com.au/technology/sci-tech/pi-day-2015-celebrating-one-of-maths-greatest-numbers-20150313-1422ay.html and http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/irrational-exuberance-how-will-you-celebrate-the-pi-day-of-the-century/
Such a once-in-a-lifetime occasion calls for ... you got it ... "Mathematical Pi" (aka "The Pi Song")! (video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWGGTb5pY2U
