That was 2 years ago, now, to celebrate an old guy acting young, I need to bang a stacked 18 year old coed, like I used to do in college.

Likely driven by the fall from height deaths I have seen/heard of on our projects. When I retired anyone going outside, anyone, was required to wear a full harness. Conduct is the best proof of character.

I ride dirt bikes but no longer race. I train some but no longer box. I don't even hit the heavy bag much due to arthritis in my wrists. I quit considering drinking a worthwhile recreational pursuit forty years ago. All in all, I'm fairly mature, I think. GD

A ladder collapsing cost me 70% of the use of my left arm and re-broke my back three years ago. I've literally cracked two teeth, gnashing down from pain, but I won't take any narcotic pain meds.
