Site is Up Again

After several weeks of being down, I have finally finished transferring Harpamps.com and NameAGalaxy.com to Hostgator.com web hosting. The Java/Tomcat is only available on the primary domain name (I found out too late). They also screwed up the DNS when the put me on a java server. NameAGalaxy.com now uses hidden frames to cover the fact that the website is really running on harpamps.com. If you click on http://www.nameagalaxy.com/list.jsp what you get is the same site running on harpamps.com.

I am running my three big sites at $20-$30 a day in add revenue. I hope that I can retire after a few years of this. When I hit $1000 per month I'll know that I can take it easy soon. I will go on social security on the first possible day and work on making websites full time. That's still 7 or 8 years off, though. I was screwed on the last Social Security Fix and I expect to be screwed in January when Bush announces his "improvements".

Astounding Tales Issue 3 will be up and running by Dec 1. Arthur Sanchez and I will discuss the half dozen stories that he has accepted and I will be working on art. We meet for lunch tomorrow. I want to install flash on my home PC so that I can learn how to bring the site up to a more modern interface.

No word yet on the two stories that I have out. Quantum Barbarian, if they accept my story, should report around the last week in November because they have a 12/1 issue. Strange Horizons reported their latest rounds over the weekend so I should get my rejection in the next round which is 11/28-29.

I am writing a hitchhiker horror story. So far it involves a realistic and explicit rape. I will have to tone it down (perhaps make it simply murder). Carlos has yet to return the "God in a Bottle" story with his edits.

I won an old amplifier "project" on eBay. It's a 1948 Premier 88N in pieces without the cabinet. It should arrive Friday. I look forward to a weekend of getting high on soldering fumes. I won't go into the technical stuff, except to say the model 88N was unique in design and if I get it working it should scream!

I have a Premier 88N amp and the tremolo channel is gutted. How is yours working now? Mine is blowing fuses as well. Do you know any resources for accurate schematics for this specific model of Premier amp?
Thanks,
John
