New XBOX Experience

Well the upcoming XBOX 360 fall update has been being touted for a good minute. The eventual changes are being promoted as changing the way we all use our 360. They are really trying to make it THE entertainment console.

Some things I think may be cool:

1. Netflix streamed movies via the 360 ---- If they pump up the library, this could be huge.

2. New streamlined look -- Who does not like to be asthetically pleased?

Things I don't care about:

Avatar --- I have a Mii thank you. I already look dumb...don't need a cartoon version of me to feel worse about myself.

Curious for this update to drop and see if it does make my 360 more than just a console I jump on when I want to get my rear end handed to me by an 11 year old in Halo 3.

Another One Bites The Dust

Apparently my freedom means very little to me. If William Wallace were around today, he would bitch slap me for disrespecting my ability to live my life on my own terms. What William holds so dear, I throw away like a used tissue.

Let it be known, that on Wednesday October 1, 2008, I dropped down on on knee, professed my love, and then surrendered my balls to my lovely girlfriend Rachel.

In all actuality, I am very excited! Rachel and I have been together for over 2 years now, and I have never been happier in my life. To think she is willing to put up with my crap for the rest of her life really speaks volumes about her patience and resolve. She's a gem. I'm lucky.

No date is set yet, so technically I am still a free man. I'll keep you posted as things develop.

Wish me luck!
