WORDS OF FAITH
John Tirro, Shopper News
I’ve been watching WandaVision, in Connecticut, in the last days of my dad’s decline. It’s comforting to me.
Wanda and Vision are comic book characters from my childhood, so it pleases my inner 12-year-old. They’re also movie characters that I enjoyed with my sons when they were 12, and the whole comic book thing ties back to a box of Classics Comic Books from my dad’s childhood, that he gave me early on, which formed a lot of my love of reading (my go-to self-soothing activity) and probably relates to my love of scripture as well. So that’s a lot.

Lafayette pie shop celebrates Pi Day
and last updated 2021-03-13 23:16:55-05
Sunday, March 14, is a special day for math (and pie) lovers - it s National Pi Day!
Pi Day dates back to 1988, when physicist Larry Shaw with the Exploratorium in San Francisco realized that the date 3/14 echoes the first three digits of pi, a constant value used in math to represent the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter.
Shaw invited employees for pie and tea on 3/14 at precisely 1:59 pm. The first five numbers of pi are 3.14159, and pies are typically round, like a circle, so Shaw s precise timing and choice of dessert were no accidents â and Pi Day was born. On March 12, 2009, the U.S. Congress ensured the holiday s success when they recognized 3/14 as National Pi Day.
