Subject: MY BLOG IS NOT WORKING AND I DONT KNOW WHO TO CONTACT TO FIND OUT THE PROBLEM
My blog seems to have been down all day.  When I type in the address,
www.airsupplyblog.com, I get one of two things.  I either get an IE
error page that says I'm having internet problems, or the address is
wrong, or some other error, OR it takes me to a google search results
page with AirSupplyBlog results.

Either way, my blog is not coming up.

I have another blog that shows up just fine, so clearly there is
something wrong with this specific blog.

I find it difficult to believe that there really isn't anyone withing
Google/Blogger that can address technical issues like this.

Does anyone have any idea what the problems are?  Just try it for
yourself...www.AirSupplyBlog.com.  And if you have a suggestion, just
email me at [email address].

Thanks

Your problem starts with your DNS setup.  Here's what you have:
airsupplyblog.com.      3592    IN      A       66.249.81.121
www.airsupplyblog.com.  3600    IN      CNAME   airsupplyblog.com.

Here's what you need:
airsupplyblog.com.  3600 IN A 64.233.179.121
airsupplyblog.com.  3600 IN A 66.249.81.121
airsupplyblog.com.  3600 IN A 72.14.207.121
www.airsupplyblog.com. 3600 IN CNAME ghs.google.com.

Please read my tutorial, for details.

Chuck,

Thank you for the reply.  Everything was fine as of yesterday and has
been for the past year and a half -- as long as I've had the blog.
When I checked with the company that has my domain, they said nothing
changed overnight.  I will contact them to let them know that
something must be wrong and will have them make the changes you have
indicated.

Betsy,

I'm convinced that the change, which caused the problem, came from
within Blogger.  That said, I'm also convinced that your former setup:
airsupplyblog.com.      3592    IN      A       66.249.81.121
www.airsupplyblog.com.  3600    IN      CNAME   airsupplyblog.com.
simply won't work now.  It may have worked once, though still
incorrect.  Now it's both incorrect and non functional.

The required setup is, as it has been for quite a while:
airsupplyblog.com.  3600 IN A 64.233.179.121
airsupplyblog.com.  3600 IN A 66.249.81.121
airsupplyblog.com.  3600 IN A 72.14.207.121
www.airsupplyblog.com. 3600 IN CNAME ghs.google.com.

The only solution, that will work reliably, is the latter.

I can authoritatively say that 66.249.81.121 is dead and gone
forever.  Please remove any A records that point to it.  Even if just
one of the A records points to that, people typing yourblogname.com
(rather than www.yourblogname.com and hitting the CNAME) will see
their browser stall trying to access your blog some fraction of the
time.

The other two A records remain functional.
