AIO-based audio diary. Each week a new clip will be posted on
the site following a little plotline.

two new clips. A new Extra! Extra!
will be posted as well.

So
you're probably wondering what happened to AIOinfo, huh? It was
updating regularly for some time, but it stopped updating for
about a month. I was recently stunned and awed by www.aioinfo.net
when I typed it into my browser. A brand-new design, more
information, and more excitement is over at the site. Be sure to
check it out soon!

It's
time yet another new episode of Adventures in Odyssey! Be
sure tune in for the new show, Room Enough For Two.
Liz is excited to see her
older brother Mark come home until she finds that Mark has
brought home a surprise...a girl named Natalie.
I don't particularly enjoy
Liz's character, but I'm willing to give her another chance
after her appearance earlier this season. Listen at Oneplace
if you don't have a local radio station that plays the show.

Along with the Scoop's new
contest
opportunity starting Sunday, there'll also be a new Extra!
Extra! article on the site. Thanks to a very loyal AIO fan
for submitting it. Also I'll be releasing the new Sound
Clips section on April 1st as well! Don't miss it! I may put
up some interviews, depending
whether or not I can get them all done on time. I don't want to
post newer interviews until I've been fair with the older ones.

I
was taking a look around the web and stumbled upon album 39, Friends,
Family, and Countrymen, which is available May 2003.
Another great Adventure in
Odyssey is underway. After the rollercoaster ride of the Novacom
saga, "Friends, Family, Countrymen" is a return to
"Normal" life in Odyssey (depending of course on how
you define "normal"). In this album, our favorite
characters learn lessons about serving God, making tough
choices, obedience and more. And, we meet the newest citizens of
Odyssey (the Washingtons) --a fun-loving family that harkens
back to the Barclay clan Odyssey fans have missed for so many
years.
Visit the Merchandise
section under Friends, Family, and
Countrymen if you're interested in ordering early.
News is
updated as well today.

As I mentioned yesterday, I
said I'd be updating you on a new Contest.
It's been nearly a year since the last contest so I think it's
about time. This contest will be more exciting than previous
ones because the winners get a fabulous AIO prize! Check back on
April 1st if you're interested in winning!

After
all the months of waiting for the big diet, it's finally here!
Airing today on radio stations across the country is Do or
Diet, written by Kathy Weirenga. Be sure to tune in:
Wooton, Whit, and Bernard
decide to go on a diet to help Connie win a scholarship. Will
they survive?
Will they? I heard the episode,
and while I didn't personally like it that much, I was curious
to see if they would survive. So did they? I'd better not say.
I'll be updating tomorrow or
the next day in regards to an exciting new contest coming up!
Check back soon!

Well, after so long, the
Official
Adventures in Odyssey Fan List has finally been updated!
With 19 new names added to the list, it sure is interesting to
take a look at what people think about the show. We've got fans from Singapore, Moscow, New Zealand,
Virginia,
and even Oklahoma! Be sure to check out the list and sign if you
haven't already. Sorry I made you wait so long if you signed it.
I'm making a decent attempt at motivating myself. When viewing
the list, the top 19 names are the newest.
Also today I fixed a minor link
problem on all of the pages. So if you were noticing that the
"Home" button wasn't going anywhere, never fear
anymore! It will get you home now! The AIO WOF button at the top
of each page was linked wrong too, but very few probably noticed
that.

Today I've got some updates for
you! Small as it may be, it's definitely a good sign that I'm
becoming more motivated to do stuff for the website! Today I've
gone ahead and updated the Merchandise
section with the new album, Friends, Family,
and Countrymen, which is available in May 2003, along
with the new video, Race to Freedom.
Both updates have some information on each AIO product for those
of you who are curious when new products are waiting to be
released.
Also today I thought I'd bring
up the safety of our nation. During the next few days and weeks,
pray for our country. President Bush announced on Monday night
(3.17.03) that we will be going to war if Saddam Hussein does
not heed our request. As we approach these troubled times, keep
remembering that in order for God to bless America, America must
bless God first. God bless America. America bless God.

You
may have noticed the image at the left about the Sound
Clips section. Just to add more info, the Sound Clips
section will be in a new format and totally revamped. The new look will contain sound clip summaries, behind-the-scenes, and other interesting facts! Don't miss it!
RealPlayer and/or Windows Media Player will always be there for
your choosing. I hope to release that soon.
A new image of the "Race
to Freedom" video is below on the left column. Today is St.
Patrick's Day, so you may want to listen to "Patrick:
A Heart Afire" today.

Today
be sure to listen to the new episode, The Pact, part two,
which airs on radio stations across the country! Here's just a
sneak peek at what you will be hearing:
Something's bothering
Agnes Riley, but what is it? Tom, Whit, and Mandy must put
together the clues.
I
hope you're looking forward to the ending to this mystery with
Agnes Riley. If you don't have a radio station where you can
hear AIO, visit
Oneplace and listen.

Now
YOU can own a piece of the Adventures in Odyssey video
series! The Official Site
recently announced that AIO fans can order individual cells from
previous videos. Cells are the individually-painted papers that
the artists create to make an Odyssey video. If you contact them
by e-mail they'll get in touch with you on acquiring one of
these. Each cell is suitable for framing and comes with a signed
Certificate of Authenticity. Click here
to learn more about it.

Oh yeah... the Fan
List! Didn't I say a few weeks ago that I would be updating
the Official Fan List soon? If so, why
didn't I update it? Man, I'm getting really bad at this. I need
to take a long break off from school and dive into the site!
I'll try to update it as soon as possible. Be sure to sign it if
you haven't already.

Today I decided to add a
"Read Our Review" link inside the "Airing
Today" column at the left for more convenience. It will
probably not be linked to a review most of the time because the
majority of episodes are not reviewed, but on the newer ones
you'll be able to. It's not much, but I'm sure someone will find
this handy... someday.

If
you've read some of my reviews from
the past few seasons, then you know that I've always enjoyed
episodes written by Nathan Hoobler. I'm expecting another winner
in the next few weeks. I guess we'll all find out together if
I'm right!

Boy, do I have a lot of
interviews to catch up on! I was sorting through my inbox the
other day and I realized that I have a lot of interviews to post
here at the site. A lot of AIO fans have submitted their
interviews over the past few months, and I tend to forget about
that section. If you'd like to take the interview then go to the
Interviews section and click on the
link to take the interview. If there's a lot of entrees in my
mailbox, then there's nothing wrong with adding a few more to
get published. We'll try to post the interviews as soon as
possible. I just thought I'd clear that up for those of you who
have been waiting and waiting.

Well, it looks
as though AIO Wheel of Fortune has
been solved! Be sure to check out the winners over at the
appropriate section. As usual, I'd just like to thank everyone
for participating in the game and hope you'll join us again for
Round 14 (date is undecided at this time). I'm sure it was a lot
of fun guessing what the puzzle was. Don't be too disappointed
if you didn't win. There's a lot of winning to go on in future
rounds! The AIO Wheel of Fortune Hall of Fame is updated with
the winners!
Also today the
Schedule for March 2003 is posted. At your left you may notice
an "Airing Today" box. This is new as of the new
design for your convenience. There's a link to Oneplace
that will remain there for a long time, and also a link to the
current airing schedules. The box is updated everyday and you'll
be able to access a summary of the current episode. I hope you enjoy it!

Today
be sure to listen to the new episode, For the Fun of It,
which airs on radio stations across the country! Here's just a
sneak peek at what you will be hearing:
Talia
decides to get back at her father by spending a week in
Odyssey with her uncle. But her uncle proves to be a big
surprise.
It
looks like we'll be introduced to yet another new character this
season. Is it just me, or does it seem like they've been replacing
the old characters lately? If you're wondering about my review-lessness,
I'll be posting some reviews as soon as possible. Lately I have
gotten far behind in my reviewing.
AIO
Wheel of Fortune is updated. February
2003's updates have been archived as well.
