Mark Spitz Exacts Revenge on LBS

A few days ago (seems like weeks to me), I presented Mark Spitz’s comments about not being invited to Beijing while Michael Phelps was trying to break his record of 7 gold medals. I called Spitz a bitter man in that post because, let’s face it, he definitely had a bitter tone. But I guess I’ll admit that someone did drop the ball by not inviting him. Either way, the Spitz fan base was none too pleased by my remarks if you couldn’t already tell from the comments, and some of them decided to really let me have it. Apparently it’s ride or die with the Spitz crowd, and since I wasn’t riding with them, my site had to die. That’s right — my server was under a Ddos attack (that doesn’t mean any more to me than it does to you) — but apparently my site was getting inundated with repeated requests that brought the site down. I had to move to a temporary IP address for the meantime just to get back up and running. Looks like the problem has finally been solved (thank God), and now I am back in my element, and hopefully you will be able to continue enjoying what I present here on this space. So sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for your continued patronage.
