Blackberry outage hits South Florida, school president admitted to rehab

For the last week the nation has experienced widespread outages of Blackberry cellphones. When the outages stretched as far as South Florida, the tragedy was all too great for the PBA president. 

The problem all started late Sunday evening, as the school president was unable to text The Bacon a last minute idea for a story, due to outages. When the errors persisted well into the next morning, sources say the president began heaving desk chairs out the windows of Sach's Hall. 

"After he hurled his entire office onto Flager Drive, we convinced him to seek professional help," said one of the seventeen presidential secretaries. 

"Why?" whispered the president to the screen of his malfunctioning Blackberry at his bedside.

He has been seen talking to himself on the lawn of the rehab compound, all the while thrusting his fingers fiercely through air.  

Despite not having sent a text message in two full days, specialists say the president is making excellent progress, picking up an iphone Tuesday afternoon. They hope that he will be able to return to campus within a couple of weeks. 

In all seriousness, Blackberry outages have made national news. Check it out for yourself:

I think putting the little disclaimer at the bottom is for the best. Then we don't have people complaining that Dr. Clark isn't in rehab or something dumb like that.
