Xbox 360
Rick is my brother-in-law. He’s home from college for Christmas break, and he’s been a permanent fixture in the basement playing Modern Warfare 2 on his Xbox 360.
I had to laugh this morning when Heidi, my sister-in-law, and her boyfriend Josh were sitting at the kitchen table and my dad-in-law popped his head around the corner.
“Josh, do you know how to play video games?” he asked.
Josh shrugged and said, “Yeah.”
“Good,” my dad-in-law said. “Go downstairs and kill Rick.”

Sure. Where are you? I love video games too, but once I start I can't stop.

Well, Baltimore…
See, before the baby was born I killed a lot of zombies on Resident Evil, and now I'll probably have to wait until he's, I don't know, five years old(!) before he can help me kill the zombies. You know the zombies aren't going to kill themselves!

I have the same problem Kelly. Once I start I have a hard time stopping. So I am in a no playing mode. Not that I don't enjoy them (I very much do). Just guarding my time. -J

Can you send your brother in law over here? I need an excuse to play video games again!
