A big “thank you” goes out to JJ G at DreamHost for sticking with the migration of all my files from Blogs-About Hosting. Seems that the Blogs-About folks started paying attention to my support tickets just over the last few days – coinciding, interestingly enough, with me witholding my monthly hosting subscription payment. Talk about closing the barn door after all the horses have left! At any rate, they deleted a troublesome plug-in that was preventing JJ G from extracting all the post 11/9/10 entries, comments, and files, and Voila! the outlaw files were extracted in a matter of minutes.

The DreamHost folks are to be commended for sticking with my support case and, more importantly, staying responsive throughout, even when I was giving them all sorts of different e-mail addresses while I have been traveling these past few weeks.

Simply put, I am back in the blogging saddle again and feel whole once more. As much as blogging can be a love/hate kind of thing at times, not having my site around made me feel like a part of me is missing. Well, no more.

There’s a lot of stuff to catch up on since the first sign of trouble back in July when the new Goodboys champs were crowned. My next post will be to introduce you to the 2011 champs in the new picture and provide my own Goodboys Invitational weekend wrap. Other stuff I’ll be getting to as I have the time to catch up on things.

I thank all of you for your patience and all the “what happened to your blog?” questions. I was worried I would lose all my readership during this transition time, but you’re all a patient and hardy bunch. Thank you so much for hanging in there!
