XXX XBOX
As foretold the season's HOT TO MAKE YOU TROT Christmas present is the Xbox 360. They'll kill for this thing. Them meaning Everyone. Us, these abstracts.
Here goes:
The kids and young at heart really dig the improved processor. The sharp barb to the heart comes from discovering that Wal Mart sold some Xboxes later that night! It's a cruel, unfair world when Wal Mart employees have control. Pretty soon they'll tell you when you can go to the bathroom and when you can make sweet love to your portable entertainment system. Or do they do that already?

Here goes:
A crowd of about 300 people were waiting late Monday for the game to go on
sale at 12:01 a.m. Tuesday. Some of them had waited 12 hours when a night
manager said the Xboxes would be sold on a first-come, first-served basis,
instead of using a number system devised by customers.
"That's when
all hell broke loose," said Ben DiSabatino IV, a 23-year- old
Bear, Del.,
resident, who had been waiting in line since 4 p.m.
"It was like a mosh
pit," 30-year-old Michael Pearman of Newark, Del.,
told the Cecil Whig.
Some customers were knocked down and trampled, though
there were no
serious injuries, said Elkton Police Lt. Lawrence Waldridge.
An Elkton
police officer assigned to monitor the crowd called for
backup. In all, it
took more than 10 officers from Elkton, the state police and
the sheriff's
office to restore peace.
Then Wal-Mart decided to cancel the sale and police ordered everyone to
leave. A store employee who wouldn't give her full name told the Cecil Whig
that
some Xboxes were sold later that night.

The irony is that you're only supposed to brutalize other people when you're playing video games, not when you're in line to purchase them.
I love the name of the "Cecil Whig", of Cecil County, Maryland. I see the newspaper's delivery boxes sometimes when I drive to NJ and NYC, especially when detouring around accidents on 95 via US 40.

I've never understood why people just can't wait. They're going to keep selling these things just as long as you keep buyin' them.
This would be a great-first case scenario for the courts.
"Your honor I only set the car on fire because they DIDN'T make very MANY XBOX 360s and I wanted to distract the line of people. I was a victim of a LUNATIC PR CAMPAIGN."
