It’s here. Available for a lim­ited time only, ICED BORSCHT & OTHER DELIGHTS — the Book (Volume I).

Excitement is in the air, no?

Addendum: I made this book not only because I find Pedia Press, the pub­lisher that facil­i­tates these Wikipedia com­pendi­ums cool and fun, but because I occa­sion­ally get feed­back that the Iced Borscht blog is too eso­teric. Impenetrable even. So I thought I’d make a roadmap. The above com­pendium con­tains a lot of things I find com­pelling. Things I enjoy, things I want to learn more about. For exam­ple, hyp­n­a­gogic mind-states — that time right before the mind falls asleep, right at the thresh­old– might be the best time to lis­ten to the great music of Ken Nordine. I’m very famil­iar with these states because I expe­ri­ence hyp­nic jerks then. I occa­sion­ally fall prey to the Exploding Head Syndrome in sleep-related moments too.

The book touches on con­cepts I’m pay­ing par­tic­u­lar atten­tion to lately. This sum­mer, for instance, I have toyed around with a dream machine, and I hope to make my first visit to an iso­la­tion tank later this month. I’m obsessed with the mind right now. “I’ll show you the life of the mind!”

And I’ve always had a fond­ness for:

• Bond Girls
• Edward Hopper
• David Lynch
• Taxidermy; and
• the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

Hope this helps.
