Gaming While High

This morning I had another dental procedure.  This cleaning and extraction went considerably more smoothly than the wisdom tooth surgery I had back in November, but still I took the day off of work just in case.  I'm home now, my face is still numb, and I feel kind of giddy.  I've never really been high before, but if it's anything like this being high is awesome!

So now I'm home and I have nothing to do all day and I'm high.  I wonder if there's any games that are perfectly suited for just such a situation.

Great!  All I need now is a computer than can play awesome PC games, unfortunately all I have is this computer:

Behold, another potential threat.

“I know $10.10 still isn’t a whole lot of money, but I think it’s too much, too fast,” 

Wanting to get a more detailed statement on his viewpoints on the federal minimum wage and the impacts on the American economy, we reached out to Mark Prior's spokesman.  This is the response we got.

"Dear Mr. Red,
We have been over this many times.  Mark Prior is not a politician, he is a baseball player and is not currently engaged in politics.  What you are seeking is a statement from Mark Pryor, the currently sitting Senator from the great state of Arkansas who is not a baseball player.  Again, you are seeking a statement from the wrong Mark Prior.  If you continue in this kind of behavior, we will be reporting you to the police for harassment."

After contacting Mr. Prior's spokesman again for a clarification, I received a meeting with these gentlemen:
