Here's another mnemonic for pi (you must supply your own 3):

I need a drink, alcoholic of course, after our class covering theoretic
1  4   1   5       9      2    6       5    3    5      8        9


quantum mechanics.
   7       9


I got this from a lecture in number theory many years ago.  Unfortunately
the professor just rattled it off and I didn't write it down, so I'm
constructing this from memory.  I think the original was lengthier.
