I know it sounds crazy but I head out to the observation deck at RDU Airport...just something relaxing about watching planes take off/land...the kid inside of me is always amazed at how something so large (plane) can take off....just a good place to get away without the cell or any radios.... 9/24/2006 11:27:04 PM |

^^^^^^ I used to watch planes take off and land from PTI as a kid. Was a nice way to pass the time, watching the planes come in and go out. Went back there a few years back to find that the overlook was now fenced off with "no trespassing, federal property..." signs. And Mays Airfield now seems to be a horse pasture.
For de-stressing, I usually go with music, sleep, or some other mindless activity. But not crying like a girl. 9/25/2006 12:20:18 AM |

^^^^^ It's just a figure of speech, miska. Like "drunk as a skunk", or "DOT worker". It's not meant to be taken literally.
Driving only works on deserted roads. If you try to take a long drive during rush hour, you'll never de-stress. 9/25/2006 9:36:57 AM |
