It happened about 2 or 3 weeks ago. I was playing with some fellow CAG members and someone tell me that Chase's 360 crashed. I then said, "Man, I am lucky. I've had mine since launch." It was too late, I said it. I could not stop myself in time to prevent the words from being unleashed onto the world. I JINXED my 360. Then it happened. It died on me.

The one thing that I miss about my system is Xbox Live and my COD4. I think playing with my fellow CAGs made me love by Xbox even much more.

I always heard people in the COD4 lobbies talking about their clans (and getting drunk and high) and how "...yesterday was a blast...Did you see how SOandso took out that jerk?..." I thought, "Man, I wold like to be part of a clan." Then I started playing with AttackingMVP. The next thing I know I'm playing with Chase, Khondor, SeanAmI, Fleshribbon, and the others. Next, they are sending me invites to games. I've never had so much fun playing on Xbox Live. I was a part of a group. I had a clan! I know, I know sounds stupid, but it made me happy. I haven't played with my group of friends in quite a while and I miss it.

I wish I could just pay for the repairs, but right now $100 is just a little too much right now. My family and I have bills and kids to think about first.

So, I just wanted to thank Chase, Khondor, SeanAmI, WetNinja, Fleshribbon, and all of the other COD4 CAG members for including me.
