Have you noticed today’s date? It is 03/03/09. It is a square root day! I didn’t observe it either until I saw the post of Karen. And offcourse people are celebrating this special day. The following square root day will be on 04/04/16! So celebrate the today, who knows what will happen in 2016!
Here is a small clip from Harold and Kumar: Escape from Guantanamo, where a poem of Square Root of three has been used (which has been written by Dave Feinberg):
And here goes the actual poem:
I’m sure that I will always be
A lonely number like root threeThe three is all that’s good and right,
Why must my three keep out of sight
Beneath the vicious square root sign,
I wish instead I were a nineFor nine could thwart this evil trick,
with just some quick arithmeticI know I’ll never see the sun,
as 1.7321
Such is my reality,
a sad irrationalityWhen hark! What is this I see,
Another square root of a threeAs quietly co-waltzing by,
Together now we multiply
To form a number we prefer,
Rejoicing as an integerWe break free from our mortal bonds
With the wave of magic wandsOur square root signs become unglued
Your love for me has been renewed.
