UPDATE: As some of you might already be aware of, the scheduled maintenance did not take place.
The feeling now is like after seeing your own child being whisked into the operating theatre, the doctor tells you the next morning that the surgery was not performed at all, and will have to be rescheduled to another day.
Don’t bother to check your calendar. It’s not April 1st.
With a heavy heart and a crackling voice, it pains Miss Loi to announce that at 11pm on the night of Malaysia’s 50th Birthday (31 August 2007), Jφss Sticks will be all but snuffed out.
Sincere apologies in advance to those who never get to read this and try to access after 11pm – only to catch the last glowing cinders of Miss Loi’s great labour for the past six months, if they’re lucky.
After all that’s been said and done, it’s really sad this has to happen. But even as Miss Loi fights to hold back her tears, she vows that she’ll be back …
… once that damned hardware maintenance is done by 5am the next day, maybe longer.
But she’ll be back. That’s a promise.
