I commented it out, and it rebooted with the proper configuration. 
The strange thing is I installed the default configuration, did not 
add in the 'network_interfaces' line manually, and have not edited 
the /etc/defaults/rc.conf file. So I'm not sure how it got broken in 
the first place.

Bottom line is all is up and running now.

Thanks!

Goodbye cruel world that was my home-
   there's cleaner space out here to roam
Put my feet up on the moons of Mars-
   sit back, relax, and count the stars
