Photo Essay: Happy Halloween, Geek Style!

Oh, Halloween. How I adore your tarantula cupcakes, glowing pumpkins and men dressed as Chippendale dancers. Here’s to another successful weekend-long celebration in St. John’s, complete with new chances for romances and one hell of a hungover 6 hour drive home yesterday.

    All apes drink beer up their nose. This was on National Geographic, or David Suzuki, so it must be true. Or was that Farley Mowatt…? hmmm… cancel that….

    Glad you got some good photos on your camera… I love what some people come up with for halloween! Party I was at last year had someone taking a bubble bath. True story.
    Looks like it was a wicked party, still a little bit sad on the inside that I missed it… next year, I will cut someone if work tries to interfere again ;P

    Firefox – Love it. Seriously, Respect! Plus, it’s a nice way to triage out any IE users.

    I knew the miners were going to be a common theme this year. But hey…WHERE do you see guys dressed as Chippendales dancers? (And the more important question, did they really meet the buffness factor?) ‘Cause that’s where I’m going for Halloween next year. :-)

    Oh to be young and crazy again! Looks like you had a fabulous time. No Halloween in Uganda- though they don’t need much of an excuse to party.
