It's dueling disasters at the BlueTower, as following yesterday evening's server outage, we had (not one, but) two different water leaks here this morning that required a visit from the friendly neighborhood plumber (I kept asking if he was Mario or Luigi, but he seemed in some sort of panic about a big monkey, so I let it be). Things seem to have reverted to what passes for normal once again, so after plugging all applicable leaks, saving the princess from disaster, and wringing out our socks to a reasonable level of dryness, we sally forth once again, none the worse for our harrowing experiences.
