Harper Reed: Software, PHP, MySQL, YoYo, Juggling, Baphomet

Ahh Halloween. How I love the city during Halloween. It is absolutely madness. This Halloween was quite a bit of fun. Not as crazy as last year - but more fun. On Friday skinnycorp had a nice Halloween party that I was responsible for. We had mark the knife perform and some really awesome costumes. [...]

A pseudo long time

Sometimes bloggin just doesn’t seem appealing. It seems like a something that is just pointless if you are not feeling the blogging vibe. So i have waited until i was in the blogging vibe. It had been an amazing couple of days. great things have happened.

I thought it was humorous that on halloween - they were showing the last temptation of christ - a movie that isn’t necessarily halloweenish. It is also funny how similar donnie darko was to this movie. Heh. I smiledwhen they showed clips of evil dead. I really enjoyed the movie. I liked the music and how the sound inter…
