whether you know the original story (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_&_Max_Hit_the_Road) or not, Sam & Max - Culture Shock (http://www.telltalegames.com/samandmax)(episode 1) is a wonderful, funny, loveable and hillarious "point & click" adventure.
will sooth your pains and keep you entertained while your intern is making you coffee :-)
a good laugh is important for you!
I've just this last week got and played through the second 'Episode', which if anything is even better. After the first one I shelled out the $26 to get all 6 episodes as they come out, as it'll save me cash.
Great stuff!
