BW28: Y is for Yesterday!

 


Happy Sunday! Today is Embrace Your Geekness Day and why that reminds me of yesterday I have no idea. Probably because in the past (and present) I have been surrounded by brainiacs and geeks as well as a few dorks. July 15th, by the way, is Be a Dork Day. So whether you are a geek or a dork or somewhere in-between, embrace it.

BW27: Zero in the title

 


Happy Sunday! We're past the halfway point for the year and it's time to recite the alphabet backwards from Z to A. Go ahead and give it a go and see if you can say the alphabet backwards without having to say it forwards. LOL! 

Let's look for the famous zero (or a synonym) in the title of the book, or look for a picture of a zero on the cover, or a character, human or animal, named Zero.  Have fun and be creative. 

Zero!

by



When I say nothing,
and you think of zero,
you’re partially wrong,
because it’s one of maths’ hero

Not all heroes,
have to be number one
In mathematics,
It’s all about the fun

Zero’s a kind number,
If you didn’t know.
Even if it’s added,
It lets you shine alone

But don’t make it angry,
As it may multiply.
It’ll remove your complete existence,
In the blink of an eye!

If you want its power,
It can’t guarantee you much.
But it can make you whole,
Stand straight and such.

Zeros got a major role
In defining limits,
Don’t underestimate this number,
It’s got endless potential in it!

There's more to this number,
From what you might already know!
Now, is zero just a nothing?
That’s a big, fat no!
