19: I have worked on many websites over the years. Here are some of my latest most fun sites:
20: <ul>
21: <li>[DroidQuest (a clone of Robot Odyssey) for Android|Robot Odyssey]
22: <li><a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.g42.and.escape.rel">42's Orb of Valhalla</a> : This is the biggest Android game I've made yet. It's a lot of fun! It's a cross between the games Dungeon Raid and 10,000,000.
23: <li>[http://mymindblewup.com] : Here you can learn how many cows are required to create a stack from the earth to the moon.
24: <li>[http://whoelectedyou.com] : Which members of congress are most similar to you? Go here and vote on bills and then look at the friends page to find out which members of congress most often voted along with you.
25: <li>[http://scifidb.org] : Like old stories from the science fiction magazine Analog? Go here and find other similar stories which involve similar topics or are written by the same author.

33: Just wanted to give a little warning that I may or may not do a costume this year. I don't know yet. I'm working on the Android version of Droidquest (Robot Odyssey) and if that project takes too long, I may decide to just keep working on that rather than work on a costume. We'll see.

36: 1.1 Halloween 2016
37: 
38: I was able to complete my costume from last year. So it took 2 years (I estimate roughly 300 hours of work total), but it turned out really well. It weighs 40 pounds, is about 6 feet wide with wings on, and about 8 feet long from head to tail. It's very difficult to walk in and if I attach it to myself incorrectly it causes me pain, but it was worth it!

46: 1.1 Halloween 2015
47: 
48: I had some problems this year. I spent about 2 months on my costume, but the fabric I ordered at the beginning of October was never actually shipped to me. I didn't realize this until it was too late to get any replacement. The vinyl fabric I need simply isn't for sale at any local store. If my costume was closer to completion I'd probably do what I did in some previous years. For at least 2 costumes I've taken a week of vacation before Halloween to get it completed. This year there simply isn't any point.
49: 
50: So, I've decided on a new rule. Next year I start making my costume in May. Nothing is happening in that part of the year anyway. Once it's done I'll just store it in my display room until Halloween. That'll certainly relieve the stress I always experience in October every year!
51: 
52: I haven't decided on whether I'll save this costume for next year or not. If I decide not to, I'll put up pictures of the partially completed work. Otherwise I'll keep them to myself until I release the costume next year.
53: 
54: For Halloween this year I'm going to touch up the Jon Snow riding a dire wolf (Ghost) costume from last year and just wear that.
