One day in early October, my son commented that my shaved head looks like a crystal ball. OK! I made it a crystal ball for Halloween. A wire figure was made to look like a scary fortune teller, a witches hat was cut into a fortune teller's table, and a long starry cloth was covering me and a small office chair I was sitting on.
On Halloween afternoon, I was sitting in he Microsoft lobby, and read fortune to kids for the price of one candy. Candy was available everywhere so I thought it is a good price for a scientific experiment testing how hard is it to take the candy from the child. 48 candies later, and my imagination squeezed dry by telling fortunes to kids and their parents within the earshot of fortunetelling, I declared experiment a success.
