I beat BioShock for the second time tonight. Although I already knew the entire storyline and the twists and turns that I would encounter during gameplay, I still had fun finding hidden rooms and missing diaries that I couldn’t access last time. Also, I wanted to see both endings before I put the game away. A common theme in...

When I was very young, I remember going to the County Line Apple Orchard on a field trip in elementary school. I’ve driven past it in Hobart about a hundred times since then, but I haven’t had a chance to go back. This year, Chrissy and I took Aiden there to see the Pumpkin House and buy a pumpkin.

I didn’t get a chance to play any BioShock in the last week because I was working on my roof. That kinda sucked. The roof is done now though (the garage roof is almost done too), so I got a chance to play again last night. I got through the Fort Frolic level, and managed to gain access to some of the places that I...
