// simple example of how to create a function that calls a middleware chain, similar to express middleware

var req = {type: "req"};
var res = {type: "res"};

// 3 middlewares
var first = function(req, res, next) {
	req.first = true; //easy way to verify that all have been executed
	res.first = true;
	return next();

  var http = require('http')

  // Expectation: When I curl localhost:3000, I want to be able to
