Blacklists can be based on domain, URL, URL path etc. Which are you using?
 
If you are using regular expressions then you should look at
http://www.regular-expressions.info/tutorial.html
 
With both domains and regular expressions, syntax is critical, especially for leading dots.
 
Probably something in your blacklist is inadvertently matching part of the string
'winnebago', although when I do that the log does point to the rule which denied me.
 
I use debug_options ALL,1 33,2
 
Don't ask me what that means.
