When I fist heard of Halo I had not even heard of the XBox. My boss at work asked me if I wanted to stop by his house after work to play Halo. (You can't say no to the boss!) So i said "sure"! When I get to his house there is no where to park! I had to park almost a block away. I walk in the house and there was huge big screen in the living room (someone had brought it for the halo party) and people everywhere. There were 25 people there and eight Xboxes and TV's in six different rooms. The majority of my co-workers were there and had no idea what I had walked into. My boss pours me a beer (from the full barrel keg) and gave me the fatty (the biggest friggen controler i'd ever seen). With that many people we just used default names. I was "Prancer" and let me say this it took me only 30 sec. to get my first kill. (FFA TS 50) James Bond 007 paid off. We were plying on "Hang'em High". I responded on top of the shotty, I jumped, turned around and there was my boss. He had already unloaded half of his pistol ammo by the time he was close to me. I walked toward him, aimed and "boom", chick-chick, "boom" he was dead. He laughed, gave me a high five and said "looks like your a Halo natural". I ended up with 6 kills that game and placed 11th out of 16. I was hooked from that day fourth. I arrived at the bosses house at 5am (I work nights at UPS) and left at 3pm that afternoon. Did I tell you that day was pay day? Well you can guess where I went next? I spent $465.00 that day and my wife was pissed. But hey, I had an XBox and Halo plus other stuff like controllers and link cables. He had a LAN party almost every week at his house if not we went to someone elses house. Not quite as large as the first one I went to, but still Halo's of fun. Those were the days. "Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, but somedays I sit and wish I was a kid again".

You're a good writer. How long did it take you to come up with that, type it, edit it, read it...
