Birdman and the Red Rings of doom......F**k!

Birdman is dead.

Well to be more accurate part of my digital persona has died on me, that's right my XBOX 360 died on me. Now I am surprised by this, sat down to play some Guitar Hero 2 and then it goes all green screen with stripes, we reset and then nothing and then the death screen pops up and then the anger begins. Slowly at first and then to a full blown rage by the time I am through dealing with Microsoft's tech support.

I swear to God, or whatever higher power exists that I must have dealt with the most something....I lack words right now.... people on Earth, and then to top of it all off, I can barely understand a word being said to me.So now BOTH of our 360's are going in for repair and that means a production slow down, yeah right before the Holiday season. Of course I have a plan, we'll see how this plan works out in the end for me, but suffice to say, it'll be a slice into the wallet.

Just you cannot believe the amount of frustration and this drove me absolutely nuts and now it feels like a part of me is gone and it cuts deeper then I thought.

It's funny how sometimes things like that can hurt or make you angry. I was actually browsing thru some blog sites and how people how have been treated in an incident like this and it makes me sad that my story is not unique and is entirely too common.
So now I wait to see what will happen and it really sucks and I don't know what to do.

I don't get mad often but when I did, I wailed a wall and hard....not a good thing for me or the wall but after an hour of AVGN swearing and some lunch, I calmed down....

So now ON THIS WEEK IN GEEK, we begin the XBOX countdown starting as soon as I receive my XBOX 360's back.

Might as well have some fun with this right? Good natured and all.
I am still an XBOX Fan boy, but I do feel slightly let down.
Maybe we'll make a pool out of it and see how quickly I get it back or something?

Actually if you have a tech support horror story or a red rings story, I'd LOVE to hear it
