That's all in Latin. Looks like they're just testing the site out. But they've got links to our two blogs, so obviously they know their shit. Maybe Arena's gastrointestinal system will post in English soon.
"Lorem ipsum..." is, in fact, Latin. It's a standard dummy text for testing layout, both in print and online.

Oh, no! I've been caught with my lorem ipsum down!
I'm still testing and tweaking things. It didn't occur to me that I'd be found out. That's what I get for testing some links! :-D
Stay tuned ...

Maybe I missed something but I cannot figure out what you were talking about when you said "Wonderful people from all over the globe have stopped by for a visit in the last day or two. Here are some of the countries representin' ...... We have also had visitors from 32 or the 50 United States, and of course the District of Columbia (bless their little hearts)."
