Yeah... It sure does. Time is an interesting concept as a function of age. The older
one gets the more time compresses (appears shorter) yet intruduce adrenaline into the
system and time expands. That is as one ages time seems shorter and shorter. Introduce
adrenaline into the system and for that period an actual short period of time seems to
take a very long time.
