This is an odd post to write. If you’d asked me 24 hours ago what JBL’s next update would be I’d have answered “JBL Review: G.I. Joe Con Night Force Lady Jaye.”

However all that changed at 2:50pm EST today when some SOB detonated two bombs in the 600 block of Boylston St in [...]

JBL Review: More G.I. Joe reviews coming soon… really!

Tweet

Yeah, remember a few weeks ago that whole promise of “one G.I. Joe  review a week”…

Sounded pretty good, didn’t it?  Yet– there is a decided lack of new reviews posted in the past two weeks.  You might even find yourself wondering- “What happened?”

Mal-gate 2010 UPDATE!

Tweet

Gang,

As of now it looks like the site might be clean again.  Some behind the scenes work between JBL staff and the good folks at GoDaddy seems to have paid off.

HACKED!!!

Tweet

Gang,

UPDATE:  It looks like we weren’t the only ones hit.  GoDaddy and a few other hosting companies got nailed by what is being referred to as the “realsafe-23″ trojan.

It is with more than a little anger and frustration that I have to report that JBL has been hacked and a malicious trojan [...]

You knew it had to happen eventually– the “old fogies” learned to use the “new fangled technology”.

JBL now has a Twitter feed– which will automatically send out a “tweet” every time the main page of the site is updated.  It’s a great way to stay on top of what’s happening in [...]
