HANCOCK WAS HERE IS HERE!

Aaaand we're back.

You probably noticed that Hancock Was Here has been offline for most of the last week. Yes, I paid my bill to my ISP. The problem is that my ISP isn't there anymore. Remember that hostage crisis on Wilshire on Tuesday, the one where the dumped guy went to his ex-girlfriend's office with an AK47? The one where Hancock rescued all 37 people inside without an injury and happened to demolish the upper six floors of the building while he was at it? My ISP was in that building. The server with Hancock Was Here was destroyed, and I don't have any backups, so all of the old content has been lost. I'm bummed out about it because that's six years of work and being the leading Hancock site on the web, all gone. I'm also pretty aware of the irony of the situation.

Anyway, we're back and we're going to be better than ever. I'm using this as an opportunity to reboot the whole site, make it more modern and add some of the features I had always thought of adding. Like we'll still have Hancock Sightings, but now we'll be mapping each sighting. Stuff like that. I have a couple of other cool ideas up my sleeve. HWH is going to be better than ever.
