Xbox 360 Red Ring of Death
I turned on my Xbox 360 today and began downloading a music video from their Live service. As it began downloading I hear 3 beeps and my Xbox froze. I reboot the Xbox and I hear the 3 beeps again. It froze again so I rebooted once more and this time 3 red lights show up on the front of the console. I've read about this before and realize that my console is basically dead.I call 1-800-4-My-Xbox. I am instructed by the computer operator to unplug my console, detach the harddrive, plug the power back in and turn the console on. I do this and the console boots up but then freezes.
A real live person comes on the phone and realizes my console is completely dead. He takes my info and tells me that my console is still under warranty until December 6 so all repairs and shipping are FREE. The turn around time is about 1-2 weeks.
Even though it's been a sad day so far because I've lost a true friend Xbox 360. There is some light at the end of the tunnel and that is I have a Nintendo Wii to play with and everything regarding my Xbox 360 is FREE.
I'm without a friend for a little while but I will fill it in with interacting with real people and listening to sad music to fill the void. I thought about making learning a trade like how to use a screwdriver or how to hammer in nails but that just seemed to difficult.
Please feel free to comment with get well wishes. I'm a wounded hurt in despair human being right now and I need all the support I can get.
Thanks,
Gregory Shane O'Connell

julianne b: thanks for reminding me that he can go outside if he wants to... i was starting to assume the controller was actually stuck to his hand so he had no choice but to play video games all day....
it's not so bad when the xbox is working... at least it keeps him from writing blogs about "thizz face".
