the fact that it doesn't find it the first time but does on subsequent tries suggest that you have some problem with the setup and latency so your client times out before the dns lookup completes.
Probably the best way to fix that is to fix your caching dns server.
Well, if I had to get it twice to actually make it, sure...the funnything is, if I go there first with 'host' and find it, then use Firefox, it still doesn't. (Denying all reason that *I* know) Firefox just won't find it. That's what makes me think Firefox is involved. These are sites I've visited every day or so for years...and I've not changed the local /etc/resolv.conf or anything on my end for about as long.
How can this be?--

Brian,
Do any other browsers have this problem?
I haven't seen any of the IPv6 firefox issues mentioned lately, but have you turned off IPv6? IIRC firefox had issues timing out DNS lookups via IPv6, before trying IPv4.
add:
alias net-pf-10 off
To /etc/modprobe.conf, unfortunately you'll have to reboot to get it to take affect.
