DDoS Attack
That’s how I’ve felt for three days.
Sorry for the outage, but my blog has been down since Wednesday night as some other domain name holder on the same
server had a Distributed Denial of
Service attack on the IP address we share. When I called my service provider (Bluehost) to determine if they
cared, basically they might have as well told that no in fact the don’t care.
This is the same stellar company that has been screwing up the site for weeks now, so to you readers, I apologize.
Here’s a tip … never ever use Bluehost.com to host your website. EVER. I’m working on finding a more permanent home for this site, so we don’t have to deal with this crap again for quite some time.
Thanks again for your patience.

1. It shows how much you were missed (but now that I know don’t let it happen again).
2. Thanks for sharing the name of the host. The best advertising is word of mouth. Bluehost just got a wealth of free advertising that money cannot buy.

Regardless of our recent e mail exchange, I am most pleased to see you back up and running.
My morning coffee without the blog seemed mundane, depending on the official jets site boring, and a general malaise and slight depression set in.
I truly missed not having the exchanges and additional insight the blog provides.
