    Yes - there may be something to this, Dave. I recall that, during the last recession, a Japanese company was holding dishware-breaking sessions to allow people to get out their frustrations. At the time, it was a booming business.

    I believe it was in NYC a number of years ago that they had a similar "venting venue". In that case, they provided cars to beat on with rented sledge hammers

    I live 10 minutes from there and have never heard of it.

    Sounds like they need to work on their marketing.

    I think we should all just work on safe zones. We can take the leadership from the Northeast

    I found a ranch out here in Fly Over Country intriguing with their ads promising opportunities to drive army tanks, run over chit and shoot up stuff with machine guns until I dug deeper and found out the price. That would only add to my stress. I even saw the one this week posted by Ben, where someone drove a tank through an old mobile home. That might relieve a lot of stress!

    When I get to the point that I want to break something there is no time to run to the mall and rent a bat, it's too late. I instead had to learn to walk away. That was one of the hardest things I've ever had to practice.
