I shall attempt to post this at exactly 3/14 1:59:26 EDT. (Good luck to me!)
Good thing my latest Mental_Floss T-shirt arrived in time for the big day!
You might recall I won a Mental_Floss contest last September, and I chose their logo T-shirt. But I ordered a Medium, which turned out to run kinda big, so it's become a sleep and/or exercise (ha!) shirt. Then Andy spotted a small error in a football quiz I forwarded him, so I quickly alerted the Flossers, and they rewarded us both with a T-shirt. I got another logo one, this time in Small, and Andy chose the Easter Island one. Then, just recently, I submitted an idea for another quiz that they accepted (still to come, stay tuned!), for which I chose this wonderful pi(e) shirt.
My plan is to amass the entire Mental_Floss T-shirt collection. Everyone has to have a dream, right?
I have that exact shirt sitting on my kitchen counter as of this morning, size Small, no less. It was going to be for a kid we know who memorized pi to over 100 digits, but I changed my mind, and instead wanted Marty's math teacher to give it out for Pi Day, but then Marty didn't want to take it to school.
So if you get yours all covered in bacon grease or something, just holler. We have an extra.
Thanks to your site pointing me to Mental Floss months ago, Marty wears the Pavlov and Pluto shirts. Hooray Mental Floss!
Happy Pi Day to all!

You're cracking me up! I should point this out to my hubby, who is so proud that he can STILL recite pi to the umpteenth place...
