Happy π Day!

It's March 14! Happy Pi Day! This day originated from when Archimedes discovered that he needed an irrational constant to do math with circles. He couldn't come up with a value for the constant. He looked at the calendar and realized "Hey, its March 14th, 314 BC!" and thus the first three digits of pi were born. To this day, the ghost of Archimedes continues to find random numbers and add to pi. Thus, pi extends for practically forever, and no computer can find a pattern in the digits of pi. Now you know. Time for me to go eat some cake!
