Getting back to the original question, if I could give three or four people a very fun weekend, I'd punch someone. If I could give one person an extremely fun weekend, I'd punch someone. I'd punch them pretty hard. I'd leave a bruise, and make them sore the next day.

I don't know about you, but if I didn't have at least one bruise and feel sore after a weekend of extreme fun then I'd start to think I was doing it wrong. ;)

Lol. I'm inclined to agree with you there. However, considering that I'm writing this while I lay in bed with my foot propped up, having shattered a few bones during my last "weekend of extreme fun", I'm beginning to reevaluate my priorities. ;)

Ouch! I suppose my intuitions are influenced a little by the fact that I have never broken a bone or had any sort of serious injury. I suspect my priorities may be changing too in your shoes. (Well, possibly shoe, probably not the plural. Too soon? :P)
