Default Hip Hip Hooray!

Our modest hero, Alex, has once again restored the Sphere for us all. It seems the problem was a technical one this time, rather than a major hack.

This place means such a lot to everyone, and Alex works tirelessly behind the scenes to keep things on track. I know he knows... but it's still nice to have the opportunity to show our gratitude to him.

Three cheers for Alex!

Jayne

And here I thought it was a mother of a hack. Well, whatever the cause of the outage, Alex rocks for getting us back together: Hurrah and Hooray, Hip Hip!!

We were all very worried, and my family wondered why I was talking to them so much! Time for some song lyrics:

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone


Joni Mitchell

I never saw the morning 'til I stayed up all night
I never saw the sunshine 'til you turned out the light
I never saw my hometown until I stayed away too long
I never heard the melody, until I needed the song.


Tom Waits

Thanks Alex!

Thanks, Alex. It was like having a toothache to have no access to the Sphere for so long.
