Go Daddy, go...!!!!!

Well, will modern wonders never cease? A company that gave a shit, worked hard, and fixed something... How outre. How absolutely not 2007ish. And not done from a call center in India...actually done right here in California, in the good ol' US of A!!!

A few months back, I wrote, and uploaded, a bunch of posts. Hell, I even really liked some of 'em!! They dealt with my break-up from what's-her-name (the very unfunny famous comedy writer), the preponderance of psych-meds and their affect on society and me directly, the decline of Civility, and one of my usual "What-the-fuck-GW?" rants. The notifications to subscribers (and thanks to those who are - how affirming) during that 10 day period didn't go out. Shoulda been my first warning. Then, within a week, GoDaddy (who hosts this blog) ate them. Like my dog used to do to my homework. Only, I really did the posts!! Naive, trusting blogger that I am, though, I did them within the blog program and didn't save them externally. Won't do that again... 

I posted a brief indictment rant, and asked for suggestions for a new host. Someone from GoDaddy was reading (!) and contacted me.

He was honest. He admitted they'd had a few small "blips" on one of their servers. Didn't affect many people, but (my luck, of course) did affect The Spiel. He offered to look into it, work to fix it, (and thus keep my business), and even give me some credit. Three weeks ago, I got the all-fixed all-clear-to-resume-posting. But I've been crazy busy (good), so this is my first chance to post.

In fact, I'm now so happy with GoDaddy, i've moved all my web business over to them, and they're doing just fine. I'm building a new website for Hassman Entertainment. Then I'll get to CharActorsInc.Com and 28DaysToHealth.Com, the two other websites I'm really passionate about. 

And there's been a lot of personal and professional changes in the last few months, and I'm anxious to let you all know about them. A new business associate, lots of time with my son, a few great showsmoviesplays, new clients, old clients, breathing in, breathing out.... I'm reinvigorated all around (though a lovelife would be nice...).

So, unlike those other times I made you promises, I'm now confident if you keep checking in frequently you'll have a lot more reasons to love me, hate me, laugh at and with me, and (my fave) feel my rant!

      Wow. I didn't know you could read Blogs with Dial Up!! Must be slow reading...

      Thanks for checking in D...I guess I just haven't had much to say, but I'm working on an entry this weekend, as I'm SICK of the Clinton mud-machine, so check in by Monday or Tuesday. Then, throughout this political  season I'm going to try to post at least twice a week....

      Thanks for the check in Darlene!!
