Crushed a guy today who was up on me quite some buyins. He calls 90% of opens so it wasn't meant to last forever. and it didn't! Perseverance pays off. It's nice though he gives me action almost every day, hope it continues now that i'm up.

I did my internship at a large dutch publishing company. The mothership of 80% of well known literary publishers here. At one point my department set up the site for this writer called Arnon Grunberg. He may or may not be translated into your languages. He lives in NY, but he visited the Netherlands to do a tour with a goat on ship. I met him at the kick-off party of his tour through the Netherlands.
And i'm sure he doesnt remember this. I still read his blog now and then. I came upon this post that is pretty funny. Think of it, when you're having a bad day. It goes on for a little bit but you can read about that in his full blog.

here is a link to the full blog:

A wise man

A while ago a friend sent me an e-mail. “Somebody called me a professional loser,” he wrote.

“Who is this person?” I asked.

My friend answered: “A wise man. I'm paying this man to talk to me.”

“You mean a psychoanalyst?” I asked.

“Yes,” my friend answered.

“Listen,” I wrote back, “the most important word in this sentence is ‘professional’. You are a professional; you know what you are doing. You are much more than the average loser. Losing is what you are good at. You should concentrate on the word ‘professional’.”
