Default A Fun Time

I'm currently working at our local convention center for a temp agency, and the convention is a bunch of different groups hiring statisticians. One of the groups is our very own National Security Agency. I've had fun trading jokes with some of them, but the clincher is part of their display: a one-each really truly gen-u-ine ENIGMA machine! I got to touch it, play with it and talk about it. They were impressed when I recognized it as an early-war machine because of its three rotors.

Anyway, that's my show-and-tell for the day.
