43. Beer, loud music, foods with high salt content

As my hearing fades, what do I do? Turn the volume higher on the headphones. Stupid. I know. But I can't enjoy good hard rock if it's not loud.

Big into combat flight simming. I'm not a couch potato, it's just what I do during the time others might watch TV, but somehow I don't offer that info to others unless I know they'd understand. I feel like I'm too old to be doing that stuff, but damned if it isn't fascinating for me.
