Allan: The key to the whole problem may lie in the last line of your post, "old dog". As I recall you and I are not a lot difference in age. As we get older we want comfort in everything we do. These daring things we did 20, 30, 40 and even 50 years ago, are no longer acceptable. There is a comedian near here writes a short article in one of our farm papers. His description of this age and comfort item, is as we age we want comfort in every thing we do and have. He listed about 25 items, thus I will miss a few. Our chair we most commonly use must be comfortable, car must be comfortable, bank account must be at a comfortable level, our toys must be comfortable and even in encounters with your good better half comfort becomes more important than passion.

Was a bureaucrat all his working years, has so much money he is afraid to die, thinks his boys may have too much fun with the money. He and his good wife have become health food nuts.

Trust me you are in pretty good shape.
