Life lately has this way of interfering in most of my 'net plans, but I had a bit of time today so I'm doing minor edits to my sites. This one has been moved. Not a huge change to the site itself, but I've transferred the site somewhere where it shouldn't have any ads. It's the little things, right? In any case, I'll go over the links for breakage ASAP but you might find a few of them down for a bit.

You may have noticed the fan message board at touched.com is shut down. My understanding is that it will be unavailable until a moderator can be found to keep discussion on an even keel. Re: the earlier note from this year. It's still in the works, but so far you should only be seeing minor edits on these pages. I've wanted to keep the Archives material as together as possible, and that's been challenging my web skills. I just purchased a really thick book that should help, though. ;-)

It's been awhile since you all heard from me, I know. Just wanted to let you know that I am working on a fairly sizeable update to this site, in view of the Archives shutting down.

It was announced today that this will be the last season for "Touched By an Angel". Although it is sad to see such a wonderful show drawing to a close, I'll be looking forward to John's next project.

You may have noticed the site's been down for awhile; efanguide crashed during the process of server upgrades, and I had to locate everything to get it back up. (I knew I had copies here somewhere, but 'here' could have been several places.) Some of the sub-pages may not be working yet, but I'll keep plugging away at the replacement as I get time. I'll let you all know when I think I'm done, so you can let me know what I've missed. Sorry about the inconvenience, and thanks for your patience!

I would like to continue to get the word out there that if you receive the e-mail forward that says TBAA will have to be cancelled because of a petition to the FCC from Madeline Murray O'Hair (O'Hare) or her organization, this is a HOAX. The petition number generally listed is from 1975, it was not about the content of broadcasts, and it was defeated. You can check out the info on the FCC's website about the hoax for more information.

Anyone who wants to see the film "Water with Food Coloring" can find it at ifilm.com at the following URL (thanks to Margaret for the 'heads up'.) http://ifilm.com/ifilm/product/film_info/0,3699,2398662,00.html

John participated in the Stars Over Mississippi charity event in both 1998 and 2000. They've got some pics and info up at their site if you're curious. He also participated in the "Evening Under the Stars" event for the Blair E. Batson Hospital for Children in 2000. John hosted the 2000 Heartland Film Festival awards in Indianapolis. Thanks to Margaret for sending in the link to a webcast of the event for those of us who couldn't be there. http://www.atiweb.com/heartland/index56.htm should take you to the webcast. You will need Mediaplayer 7.0 to view it.

You can find information about "Journey to a Hate-Free Millenium" at http://www.newlightmedia.org/journey/journey.html.

Check out some fan reviews of the premiere for "Journey to a Hate Free Millenium."

Back in April 1999, John starred in a stage production of "Spellbound" and "It Happened One Night" for the Sundance Theater Spring Benefit. His co-stars were Sally Field, Tim Daly and Christopher Lloyd, and they played to a sold out house in Salt Lake City. See one fan's reaction.
