Hi John,
I believe your sidebar is getting pushed to the bottom of the page because the container isn't big enough to hold both the image and the sidebar. You can alter the container size in the style.css option of the Theme Editor.
Try using a smaller image in the center position, and see if that solves the problem. ie. If the image that is causing the problem was 700 pixels wide, try using one that is 500 pixels wide, etc.
Most of the themes I've worked with have had container sizes of about 800 pixels so they'll work in all browsers, so if your sidebar is taking up say 200 or more pixels, your image can't take up more than 600 pixels on the widest side so they'll both fit in the container. (If there is no room for the sidebar to be called, it will push to the bottom, which sounds like what you are describing.) Each theme is different, though, so it will take some code investigation.
Regarding issue #1, from the Wordpress Dashboard/Options/General you'll need to change the Wordpress address to www.redneck.setzler.net to override and the Blog address to the same thing. (I think! Use caution!) This will cause issues with your permalinks and your chmod rewrites, though, and may cause some log-in issues. If I were you, I'd leave it alone if your permalinks are working.
HTH,
Laurie
