A cute girl, who is not my cute wife, and who makes me upset with whomever is getting cutesy with my website.

I may have a solution, based on your notes:

[leam at shaphan ~]$ host reuel.net
reuel.net has address 192.30.252.154
reuel.net has address 192.30.252.153
reuel.net mail is handled by 10 mx.hover.com.cust.hostedemail.com.

[leam at shaphan ~]$ host leamhall.com
leamhall.com has address 192.30.252.153
leamhall.com has address 192.30.252.154
leamhall.com mail is handled by 10 mx.hover.com.cust.hostedemail.com.

[leam at shaphan ~]$ host leamhall.dev
leamhall.dev has address 216.40.34.41
leamhall.dev mail is handled by 10 mx.hover.com.cust.hostedemail.com.

So, leamhall.dev is just an empty page, and reuel.net is my "real" page. I had set up leamhall.com as a CNAME to reuel.net, but then realized that GitHub Pages (where reuel.net goes to) didn't have any information on leamhall.com. So maybe it's a random-ish github page? I've removed the GitHub page CNAME stuff and leamhall.com should revert to Hover's standard "No page here yet" page. We'll see in a few minutes.

Does that make sense? I don't run the DNS for it. Also, I just checked the files and there's no hokey index file in there.
