A Quote by Colin McEnroe

I have... had a disturbing dream in which I break through a cave wall near Nag Hammadi and discover urns full of ancient Coptic scrolls. As I unfurl the first scroll, a subscription card to some Gnostic exercise magazine flutters out.

And, you know, I had to try to, at the end of the year, have more money coming in than going out.
