I have resolved the issues I had and of course one of them is "Operator Error" and the other was a cut & paste nightmare.
The "operator error" was the (Design) Icon in the admin panel, duh... When it's clicked all the text in the modules disappears to allow you to move modules around a bit easier.
The cut & paste error was a web site that I copied the text and a Flash Movie, I was able to paste it in the window and the Flash windows and text appeared. When I updated the page, it just hung. When I aborted IE and restarted the blog page hangs on the display of that Flash window.
I was able to go into "Design" mode and export the contents (Available if you are interested) and view it. It appears the copy & paste created some XML content that really bothered DNN. So I attempted (even though I know better) to edit the XML and import the content. Didn't work
So I deleted the Blog module and verified that the blog page now loaded, even though it was blank. Then I reloaded the Blog module and began the manual process of loading blog entries. The XML will make this task a little easier. I plan to export the blog more frequently and avoid cutting and pasting movies.
Even with all this effort to repair this issue I am still very impressed with the blog module.
If you want any of the files let me know and I post them on the download section of www.UncleShooter.com
