Groan!
(You might have to explain this to all the readers who did not take physics or chemistry.)

Brings back memory of a high school Chem II project that resulted in approximation of Avagadro's Number. I remember just enough of it to know I'm not recalling a critical step to from a couple of measurements to a number. I know we were within only several levels of magnitude, which given the crude measurements was pretty good.

Someone did send me 6.02 x 10^23 tubs of guacaMOLE.
I figured it was Avocado's number.

They opened up a new pizza joint named PI in goatpeterville where I reside. It's logo on the door is the pi symbol. The server described the "pie" of the day. She reacted with a blank stare when I asked, "how many decimals in the pie of the day?"
(arggh?)
If it's not an eat-in only place, they could carry out to as many places (decimal or otherwise) as they like.
Are they open 22/7?
(another groan.)

Is there a post of the year contest?
I think that GMK's post is brilliant. And to the best of my knowledge, I am not related to GMK

Thanks for the kind words, but I doubt that the Humor forum qualifies for post of the year. It's fun, but it's not really what we're here after.
By the way, Gramma K is also pretty sure that you are from a different branch of the K family tree.
