If you liked watching "airline" you'll love this: NASA Aviation Safety Reporting System incident reports. Fascinating stuff. Their monthly safety bulletin, Callback is also great reading (and more readable).
This weekend was the 7th quasi-annual Microsoft Puzzlehunt weekend. This time the theme was Lewis Caroll's "Alice" books. Our team ("The Badgers' Parade") came 36th out of 51. Not bad, but not as good as we had hoped. However, we did score a couple of good coups: we were the first team to solve a puzzle, and there were 3 puzzles that we were the first to solve (only the top 4 teams equalled or bettered that). I was pretty exhausted by the end - I only got 4 hours of sleep on Saturday night, and that was on a sofa in the atrium of building 18.
