I bet you didn't know it was Square Root Day. Don't feel bad. I didn't either. Rob clued me in. Here is the Wikipedia entry explaining the holiday. There are only 9 in each century. The next Square Root Day is not until the year 2016, so party really hard. That might begin by learning how to take square roots by hand, extract responsibly.
