Iâm a reasonably conservative guy. By that I mean the impetuous nature of youth was left behind long ago and I have no desire to be twenty-something again. Taking advantage of the experience and maturity gained over the years, rather than succumbing to impulse and irrationality, seems to suit my nature. I prefer my fun and excitement be tempered by responsibility and socially appropriate behavior. - Annie
