Bryan’s Video Proposal to Jamie (With a Little Help From Elvis and a Lot of Friends)

Jamie and I are going to Hawaii in August, and she’s a big Elvis fan. To work with that, I would like to get small clips of you lip-syncing to parts of “Can’t help falling in love” by Elvis. Don’t worry, you wont have to do the whole song. Once I get a good grasp of who will be involved, the song will be chopped up and you will be sent a small part to lip-sync.

Peabe @ Code of Conduct Tattoos

On Saturday, Bryan (aka Peabe) was back in town. He had a show over at Code of Conduct, a nearby tattoo studio on 11th and State (one of the partners, Ryan, is also an Emmis employee and works for Q101).

Good Luck With the Jury Duty Interview Tomorrow, Bryan

Best of luck, my friend. I hope your natural ability to detect criminals by “the way they just look all guilty” gets you off the hook.

Good Bye Bryan, Good Luck Peabe

With great sadness, this is something I’ve known for a while now… and something that many of us knew at work: Bryan is saying goodbye to Emmis Interactive, and heading out to the West Coast. He’s going out there with Jamie, and will be pursuing his artistic career full-time. While it pains me to see him go, there’s this rightness…

Battleship Torpedo Attack

Allison recently got a version of Battleship that I’ve never seen before – one where each side comes complete with a periscope that shoots torpedoes (tiny black marbles) under water, at the ships.

Emmis Interactive Holiday Party: Wild Hare, Wrigleyville

Since our department moved out into its own office, our holiday celebrations have also separated themselves some from the stations. In the past, us Interactive folks would celebrate along with the stations; but we’d also have our own gatherings and dinners. It’s wild to think about, but about 5 years ago now… I sat down at a table with all…

Limo Ride

A bunch of us showed up early to work, so that we could take a limo out to the suburbs. Why a limo? Well, we had a bunch of people to transport… and this is what was offered up as transportation for us. Where were we going? Well, unfortunately that part of things is covered by a NDA – so…

New Space!

So it’s official. Papers were reviewed by lawyers, plans were drawn up, papers were signed. We’re moving. Again. Time sure zooms by. It seems like we just moved out of our old space and just moved into our current digs. And now, come April (if we’re lucky), we’ll be moving yet again over to a new location at State and…

Celebration!

Today marks the official soft launch of our division’s website. This has been the project that Chris and I have been working at, for some time now. It’s not quite ready for public viewing yet, but we did an internal launch today. Chris and I were both headed out around noon (we were taking a half day off, since we…
