We’re Back on a New Server!!

Well, I’m back. It was really scary there for a bit, but I’m back online with my new host, as you can see by this news item. It’s actually a copy of something I wrote for next issue of my newsletter, so that’s why some of it talks about the newsletter. First off, I wanted […]

Site Hosting Update

I’m still with my old host. Given that my news page is still active, I’m doing this update today. I’ve eyeballed a replacement host for the site, but with the traffic I do, the target will cost me anywhere between $149 and $189 per month in costs – that’s definitely something I cannot afford to […]

In a press release that I skipped below (calling it "old news"), I missed this paragraph from it: Over the next two years, the revered […]

CONTEST WINNERS

It’s been brought to my attention that I neglected to post the winners for the Dio giveaway. Yes, that’s correct, I’m sorry about that. I can’t tell you here, because I no longer have the emails! As I always say, I don’t save emails from contests, so after I sent out the prizes, I delete […]

BIG UPDATE TO THE TIMELINE PAGE

I do websites for a living (3D Realms), and as a fan (Texas Rangers Baseball Club), plus this site, and I maintain the Bill Ward & Cozy Powell sites, too (amongst other things I’ve done). Anyway, of all the websites I’ve ever done and all the pages I’ve ever created, there is one page on […]
