It began as the GODFATHER OF MATH, evolved into the GOODFATHER OF MATH. Now this. Go figure...

Slightly Tilted But Very SLANGOMETRIC ... + Most Necessary

________________________________________________________________________________________________

And most necessary
to have "fun" with Math
and not fail it

  1. Oliverio dedicates this page to two people:

    1. An Algebra 2 student named MIGUEL AGUILERA
    who nicknamed Pythagoras "The Original Gangster"
    because the Pythagorean Society wore dark capes,
    had distinct hand symbols, and would kill any
    of their ilk who shared their secrets with plebians

    [Hippasus was one such casualty]
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippasus

    2. A principal named VIRGINIA PRECIADO
    who delighted in the school-wide drop
    in the state-wide test scores
    because it meant Jefferson
    qualified for extra money
    from state + federal
    funding sources
