Maybe, but that's not really what I'm talking about. I mean look out for the guy who can be smiling and laughing and joking around and then blast your front teeth out without breaking stride. When a guy can just think things through, take care of business like he's solving any other challenge in life, and then move on unfazed, he's someone to watch out for. In classes I've taught, I often refer to this idea by saying that you should be as emotionally attached to the situation as you are when you're trying to decide which brand of green beans to buy at the store. You just don't care much. There's no real emotion that comes with it (no angry temper, no sullen resignation). It's just engaging the brain and doing what the situation demands without letting it get you too riled up.
