Happy Pi Day!

My favorite holiday of the year. . .pi day! Where all of us who are mathematically inclined can raise a glass to one of our favorite mathematicians, Albert Einstein, who was born on this day. March 14 - the 3rd month and 14th day - 3.14 - pi (for those of you who are still not sure of what's going on). Einstein's most prized possession travelled worldwide (at one point in Tupperware), even after his death in 1955 - any guess to what this was? Why it was his brain, of course!

"Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our CIRCLE of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty." ~Albert Einstein
