And still going strong

We haven't intended to neglect the blog, it's just that we've been very busy, all of us.

We hope that you've downloaded the MP3 of 'St Ignatius Started the Fire' from the site, so you can put it on your iPod and rock out to it on your way to class. Also, we are very excited that Tim Russert has agreed to work with us next week. We are very excited for this opportunity.

In other news, we were very surprised when The OC gave us a nod, and it even made it into their episode synopsis (as Alex (A&S '97)) pointed out. From the synopsis: "Marissa and Julie return to the trailer with take-out Thai. Then Julie pulls out an Armenian menu for Marissa and Kaitlin to order from on Sunday night, while she’s at her “business meeting.” Marissa tries to subtly remind her mother that they have plans Sunday night, but Julie doesn’t know what she’s talking about. “Remember, we were going to order in food, watch The Sound of Music…” Huh? Oh… suddenly she catches on. But it’s too late, Kaitlin’s already lost her taste for Thai"

Our 'Armenian crown price' was thrilled by the nod, as was the rest of the cast.

I hope the other cast members will be posting the progress being made on Episode 4 soon, as I know everyone is excited to see what will happen next, and how the newest characters will affect the plot line. Stay tuned!

A bump in the road

I almost titled this post 'And now the bad news,' but figured that would have been a bit too negative.... though not too far off.

Firstly, I hope everyone had a wonderful Xmas and New Years. I spent that week in North Carolina with relatives, and my grandparents called from Indiana to tell us that a bunch of pipes burst in my house when it got down to zero - ruining electronics in the affected area, which means that now I don't have a permanent internet connection now that I'm home. The other bit of excitement is that also that same week down in NC, the light inside my laptop screen went out which means I'm using an old monitor next to my laptop to work on the website.

Also, to correct Woody's proclamations about the refreshed website design that is coming online as soon as possible - it will look much the same, there will just be more stuff on the site and a better layout to get to the things already on there. A complete site redesign may be in the works, but for now we're just adding more content to the site and completely changing how it is laid out in pages and folders.

If you want to find out when the new site goes live, sign up for our mailing list on the front page of the site and you will be updated when we add new commercials to the site too.

I wish I had the new site up by now, but those pesky 'technical issues' came up. I'm glad that the producers (Woody and Joe) have been understanding of this delay. We will come up from the ashes of the old site with new content and a new humpday fix... when I get caught up.

I also wish to thank you, the viewer, for your patience.
