These guys are cool, you should check them out. Tell them I sent ya.

Things I Did While In San Diego...

Visit La Holla beach, but remember to mispronounce "La Hoya" to "La Holla."Before we get into the details of one of the greatest trips of my life, I think I should send a tremendous thank you and shout out to Jesse Cunningham and Lea Stretch. Without them this trip wouldn't have been as great as it turned out. There are a lot of things that happened on the trip that clearly won't fit in any blog post, but hopefully I can get some of the finer points right.

Below are some photos and bulletpoints of the wild ride that was San Diego...

Personal Note: I'm Couchbound

 I'm The Change In The Cushions.

I’m happy to report that I’ve been able to jedi mind trick the very talented folks over at Couchbound.net. They have a podcast and write thoughtfully on anime and other topics I find interesting. So if you don’t see me running my mouth here as much, it’s because I’m trying to keep up with the likes of site founder Derek Lavigne and the rest of the stellar staff.

I’ve been writing for the site for a month now and I didn’t want to post until I felt absolutely comfortable. I’ll still be writing reviews and making my little oddball posts, just know that I’m always secretly planning something.

Thanks For The Continued Support,
IT

The Brog's 2 Year Anniversary!

Trust Me, I'm Just As Surprised As You Are.

It all started with an image of Jeff Goldblum in short-shorts. We’ve been through a lot haven’t we? Internet memes. Epic gaming rants and the institution that is the nonsensical image at the end of my movie and game reviews.

This is the part where I issue some form of “state of the brog” address. There are plans, but for the handful of you who actually read this site, expect more of the same. Which, I guess, is more of anything I can get my mind around. There won’t be some major site overhaul or “Brog 2.0 beta” experience. I do like making banners with me in them, so expect more of those [narcissism]. For the eight of you who have stuck with The Brog this long ... I apologize. No one should willingly subject themselves to such poor grammar on a regular basis. I salute you.

My Life As A North Campus Video Employee

I Worked In The Front Room Area. The Shelves Were Well Stocked This Day. That Doorway You See Would Eventually Become The Owner's Office. Because They Had To Close and Sell Stores To Make Rent.

 

For the past three years I've worked at Columbus, Ohio's North Campus Video -- I've been documenting on a semi-weekly basis my experiences at the 31-year old mom and pop business. What you should know is this is a completely biased account of how one particular ex-employee saw in the underbelly of a Columbus landmark. Unfortunately, the manner in which I was laid off has actually stayed my blade [for the time being]. My original account of my tenure was going to be poisoned-tipped and rage-filled, but in the interest in the off chance of me getting the little details wrong -- I'll leave names out.

www.itbrog.com Confirmed

Sir Morbo Has Spoken

We've finally done it folks. And by 'done it' I mean we've finally accomplished our $20 dollar fundraiser needed to register this site under a shorter url.  So, just know you can still use the old long form of www.isaiahtaylor.squarespace.com

But for all intesive purposes we have moved on to the shorter, more streamlined version [whatever that means] in www.itbrog.com.

Welcome to the Future,

Another Glorious Day For Brog

This Is Morbo Happy

With your help you have completly DEMOLISHED the hit record of a couple days ago and therefore many pathetic hours of my life will be wasted in servitude to the mighty Morbo.  Use this time to rejoice and recognize that without I would probably have a life outside this very meaningful Brog.  May your life be filled with great food and fish.  And may your mother's feet be coated with this Earth's finest butters.

Celebration after the jump...
