Got it! You’re the winner here. I just setup both of my zones the name way and 
obviously AT&T changed the way they did RDNS entries from when I got a /25 last 
November and this second /25 in June. Oh well!

Now I am running into the challenge of Route53 does seem to support creating an 
authoritative zone for "128/25.168.207.107.in-addr.arpa.” It changes it to 
"128\05725.168.207.107.in-addr.arpa.” every time… *sigh* If it isn't one thing 
its something else.
