I'm sorry, we don't allow posts that long from Pete. Better to redact it down to:
Dead or frozen box

Sucks to be you...bitch
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

I tried streaming a netflix last night. Got to the dashboard desktop thingie, was scrolling to find the netflix app, and got the "beeeP" as it froze. Curious. I mean, unplugging things for an hour seems like it would fix stuff. So when I'm done with tech, I gotta ship that puppy out I guess.

Huh, you didn't mention the beep before. That's exactly what mine would do when it froze.
BTW, they replaced my box. Sadly it was the same generation as my previous so I didn't suddenly gain a 360 with an HDMI port.
Remember, don't ship the hard drive!
Also, Laura is on the List.

Oh, it's music and singing games. I was envisioning playing Jesus Christ Superstar with more firepower. Dang.

Can Grisabella finish performing "Memories" on-key while dodging thrown tomatoes and boots?

Can't do link from studio, but combineing work and game inteigues & scares me.
Pete, you say not to ship the hard drive? Good to know. What was the cause of yours and cost for repair? Too bad about no HDMI, I was wondering same thing. It would be nice!

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
I was envisioning playing Jesus Christ Superstar with more firepower. Dang.
I had something similar in mind:
TapDancingJaysus: Dood. I can't find my way out of Pontius' Palace and I'm all out of holy powerups!
KeengofKeengz: Go across the swimming pool.
TapDancingJaysus: Thx!
JudasRox: Noob!
