That .38 - you go out and hammer nails with it all day, come back and it will cut dead center on target every time. It's got a really nice action to it and a heck of a wallop.

So, did the conductor guy used to live here?

No. The conductor worked on the train. The station agent worked in here.

Doing what?

A lot of things. The train brought in the mail. And the agent delivered it. They sold groceries. They cut hair.

Really?

Yeah.

Are you gonna open a salon?

I'm retired, actually.

Aren't you a little young to be retired?

No, dwarves retire early. Common fact.

Yeah, lazy dwarves.

I guess if you are a person stripped of emotions, you can be so unemotional that you can get through such scenarios without the self emotions getting in the way. His father was known to have Asperger's and he does too.

We all herd the saying, "you are your worse enemy." This person has to be unaffected and composed to get through stuff like this. I think it's fascinating that there are people that can control themselves into such level of focus.

Majority of 'normal' people factor in emotion in the outcomes, but there are people that do not factor that into their decisions, unless it's something learned and mimic, and not in their inherent nature.
