down she goes, page-74

An old man was once so unlucky that he had gone 84 days without catching a fish. At that point in time, he decided that he would venture out far into the Gulf, confident that his luck would change.

On the 85th day, he sets off in his boat and by noon he has a large fish on the line (probably a Marlin).

Point here is, we are all old men in the sea, and we are all throwing a line. Sooner or later, good things will come, and in the case of ACL, rich rewards will come. Sure, there will be a bumpy ride across the seas at times, but sooner or later, the wind and seas will become friendly, and a great catch awaits us all. Patience will award us all.
