I've done it all. Ten years on the railroad,
laying down track and growing food for them. After that... Five years of squeezing gold
out of a mining claim the ducks said was dry. I quit. And I came here
when they wouldn't give me the going rate for my gold. Twice the work for half the pay? I couldn't live
with that anymore
