If you're reading this, you have too much time on your hands.
I don't play computer games much, and I certainly haven't played Half-Life 2: Episode Two. Apparently there are are achievements you have to meet during the game, but there is one hidden achievement involving a little garden gnome that you can pick up in the beginning of the game: To send the little gnome to space. Which basically means you need to carry it with you the entire game and do some fancy work to hold on to it and not lose it or blow it up. Read up here for an entertaining gnome adventure with hilarious screen shots.
