i am getting frustrated with all of these mathematical holidays. We just celebrated E day. I think it is a conspiracy started by the textbook companies to sell more books.

oh yes, some of you may complain about mathmatic related holidays, but some girl in my calculus class showed up with lots of pies. We held a pie-eating contest to the dismay of the teacher. It probably made my day.

He's not telling the truth about his gear ratio!" It was you who showed the world his true disseminating colors. And when the history books are written, they will say thusly:
...And it was DonPenguino who so valiantly exposed the liar koyman when koyman falsely claimed that his gear ratio was equal to and not greater than that immortal number pi, and on its anniversary day, no less. Yes, DonPenguino it was who will forever be remembered as that beacon of truth, that light for what's right, that proverbial pinocchio's nose: The Truthbringer.
Let it be so, and God Bless America.
