 It seems another fan blog has joined the ranks. This one is done by our very own Camilla Parker. It has posts written from her perspective. So far it is really good. If you want to check it out, click here.
There are some blogs from other Odyssey characters, but most of them haven't been updated for a while. If you would like to check them out here are some of them. The most up to date one being Mandy's blog.

Also, Audry (AIO Insanity) is getting close to her 100th post, to celebrate she plans on having a podcast. Can't wait to see what it sounds like.

Odyssey Connection: When I was younger I loved baseball. I started with t-ball. I was decent, and if I remember right, I even hit a grand slam. But that was t-ball. Once I moved up into baseball, things weren't quite so easy. I wasn't good at baseball, kinda like Davey Holcomb in Whit's Flop. I'd often strike out, drop pop flies, but I did have a good arm. Anyway like Davey learned, everyone has their own talent. Mine is definitely not baseball, although I do play it for fun every now and then. I later learned what my talents are. They include: playing the trumpet, singing, and boy scouts. Davey got discouraged and thought he wasn't good at anything. He later helped Whit invent a pizza oven from the old photo copier, and that oven is still in Whit's End to this day, as far as we know.

That about wraps things up for now. This is Freddy Jay saying "Don't be afraid to comment. We bloggers like fan input."

Lights Out

 For some info on the upcoming Album 52 fall season you can go to aio wiki. It's not much...but maybe we'll have more to go on later.
On the Ceiling Fan Podcast theres a new feature called James the intern. What is that mysterious email? Very intriguing. Can't wait to here more.

Odyssey Connection: Today I listened to Lights Out at Whits End, even though it's not in an album anymore, you can find a link to listen free online on AIO wiki, here --->  Lights Out at Whits End.  This episode is very entertaining,  the ending has Tom and Whit rapping. That part made me laugh so hard. I don't think I could do much better though...This episode reminded me of times when the power went out here when I was younger. Since the TV was out we would sing songs/improvise words to songs to make the time go by. For example: We took the veggietales song "God is Bigger than the Boogey Man" and we came up with "God is Bigger than the Tornadoes."  Which sounded like...
God is bigger than the Tornadoes, He's bigger than the mudslides and the twisters on TV. Oh God is bigger than the tornadoes and he's watching out for you and me.(It seems kinda lame now...but at the time it was fun...)
What kinda things do you do/used to do when the lights go (went) out? Let me know in the comments.

That's all for now. This is Freddy Jay saying "Great now that song is stuck in my head....."

First scene of Part 2

The Official Whits end Podcast's newest cast is up. Including a first scene of The Inspiration Station part 2, and an interview with Andre Stojka.

Scoop Contest!

The Odyssey Scoop is doing a contest. This contest includes taking a picture (YES!!! Picture time!) of your odyssey collection, in unique creative ways. The best part? The prize is album 51. I'm already trying to come up with something to do. The deadline is 11:59 EST on Wednesday, March 3rd. To read more about it, click here.

Odyssey Fun Fact From the Odyssey Guide: "The search for Whit" was originally titled"The Mentiri Files. and contained the reappearance of character Alfred Brownlee, who was introduced, but not heard in "The Jesus Cloth."



Odyssey connection: Last night I ate out with some friends at a Chinese buffet. My first helping consisted mostly of chicken-like foods, potato, and a roll. Well my friends decided to go with me on my second trip. They picked out several things for me to try. I warned them that I was almost full, but they insisted I needed to try something new. I tried some of the things that was on my plate but I couldn't eat the rest. Anyway the trying something new part kinda made me think of the episode "Train ride". Where Eugene sets up a mystery on the  train ride  for Whit to solve to help him get out of the daily routine.

Thats all for now. This is Freddy Jay signing off.
