It's a wet, chilly, rainy, gloomy day here in NYC. It feels more like an October day than an August day, but it's the perfect weather to put you in the mood to play BioShock for the first time. I look forward to getting home tonight and making my initial descent into Rapture. Like many of you, I have avoided EVERYTHING BioShock related for the last week. I didn't want any part of the story spoiled for me by some internet jackhole.This game seems to be much like the movie The Sixth Sense. You'll enjoy it the best the first time before you know the twists and turns of the story. Thankfully I can safely put the disc in my 360 tonight without really knowing where this journey will ultimately end.

I do have a dilemma. I have tickets for the Mets/Padres game tonight. It's going to be a great pitching match-up. John Maine vs Chris Young. With the Mets holding a comfortable lead in the NL East and the Padres leading the NL Wild Card, itsa potential playoff preview. I've been to 18 games this season, but I hate to waste tickets, especially to a good game. Torn between my love of baseball and playing one of my most anticipated games.....what to do. Mother Nature may just solve the problem for me if this rain keeps up. Otherwise I'm going to be one tired accountant tomorrow.
