Beacon Media Server Stays Dry, for Now

The influx of unseasonable rain showers to the foothills has caused a leakage into the roof of the world Headquarters of Beacon Media, Inc. in Monrovia. Workers were forced to improvise a makeshift rain shield in order to ensure that the Beacon server wasn’t harmed in the indoor flash flood.
Said Terry Miller, photographer for the news gathering organization, “Someone get a bucket, there’s water everywhere.”
The server, which contains all past, present and future publications issued by the company as well as the necessary tools for updating the company’s website, was temporarily disabled last month during a rainstorm.
Responding the accusations that the matter was not properly handled to avoid a repeat crash, Editor John Stephens said, “As you can see, the drippage coming from the ceiling lands on this precision positioned umbrella, after which, the water drains into this bucket away from the file server towers.”
As for the possible implications of opening the umbrella indoors, Stephens had no comment.
