The House that Xbox Built


Who says pudgy fingers can't do delicate work? I do not have delicate fingers. I have thick, paw-like appendages, and as such have always been teased for my lack of ability to do fine detailed work. Well HAHAHA to you people, check out my latest creation. Its not exactly like I built a 6 story mansion, but I don't think its too bad. Donna helped as well, but it was pretty much a 50/50 deal, so my stout fingers did just fine.
Today is a day of disproven myths. Not only the pudgy fingers thing, but everyone tells me not to get the extended warranty. Its a suckers trap, no good, waste of money... whatever. I have to admit that I egt the extended warranty probably more often then not. Why do you ask? Why would a smart individual such as myself throw away my money? Well, more often then not, when I get the extended warranty, I need it. I returned my printer and returned my scanner twice. I know these are not big ticket items, but so far so good. So when Best Buy suggested that I get an extended warranty for my Xbox 360, I jumped at the oppertunity. the manufacturer's warranty is 90 days. Thats total crap. Where is this story going? Last night my Xbox packed it in. The lights started flashing red and ait crashed hard. The instructions are a no go, so back to Best Buy I go.
The moral of today's stories? Never trust a myth or anything people tell you. Except me, since I seem to be right.
