He's a successful, resourceful killer, but he doesn't exude violence, nor does he spend his free time in bars staring down the local toughs of Wherever. Keller spends his off hours walking his dog, Nelson, until his dog leaves him. And then he starts collecting stamps.

I’ll be damned, Keller. It sounds for all the world as though you’ve got yourself a hobby. You’re a whatchamacallit, a philatelist.” Keller is your standard lonely bachelor.
