I Haven't Done That In Years.

   Some things, like getting punched in the face or getting arrested don't need to be re-visited. How often do we say stuff like , "I can't remember the last time I went to New York." or "I haven't skied in years." Lot's of stuff that used to be fun, still is. If you have matured a bit, perhaps it may be time to look back and re-visit some of the more lively pursuits.
  For example, I lacked the good judgement to own a motorbike as a young man. It's not necessary to buy a brand new Harley. What the English call an "old nail ",(anything that runs) can be had for a couple of hundred bucks. Also, before you go off camping say, it ain't necessary to blow hundreds at the LL bean store. God made yard sales. Skis, fishing gear, roller blades, meat grinders, ice augers.... can be had cheap.
      You may discover you quit deer hunting because it's cold and boring, but at least you gave it another shot. The local night spot still has loud bands and cheap beer. You can always sell the ice auger at your own yard sale.
