I think part of the problem is the need for a different sort of excitement when your younger, you remember partying all night (well maybe not

), waking up at midday with a dead bear in your mouth. That sort of excitement. I think as you get older sometimes you like your excitement in more subtle forms. A little bit like, when younger any turps will do (exaggerated just a little bit but not by much) then as you age your tastes become more discerning, until you get to

middle age

only the finest subtlest excitements will do.
That's my story and I'm stickin' to it
