Hmmm... I think those can be explained:

FireAnt - I had an ant on my father's side of the family, and she always fired people.. that was why she was called a FireAnt...

Pi.. well is that a cherry, lemon, apple or strawberry pi?

LOL.. Not always.. sometimes they're to the 3.14159 power..

Sorry, like you mentioned, I was just being a little silly, if I remember correctly from high school Algebra, I know that Pi is a mathematical constant, the value of which is the ratio of any circle's circumference to its diameter. is the same value as the ratio of a circle's area to the square of its radius. This will always equal to about 3.14159
