As important as the first cast is, it is the last cast that is the really consequential one. Upon this cast depend such diverse things as love relationships and job performance evaluations. As long as there is light, there is hope, and I find myself making one last cast,' like a kid trying to leave the basketball court but needing to make that last shot. Even if you do get a fish on, the last cast is the hardest cast of all."
