This is giving us ideas 🤔
I was paid in honey mead and erotica coffee table books by a Czech publisher in the early 90s. I was given the choice of those two or "stationery".
I already shared that but people like this!

When Pepsi signed a distribution deal with USSR, trade embargo was in place so monetary transfers were not feasible. Pepsi was paid in decommissioned military equipment and for a short glorious while Pepsi was the 6th largest military power in the world

A belter of a review from one of our ARC readers:

"It’s really quite a book and I have great admiration for Joe Butler bringing it all together in an expanding Lynchian, Kingian, Nolanian way."

A couple of things in the last 2 days have made me wonder if I've slipped into an adjacent universe: 1. visited Grey Matter Books in Hadley & was startled by the large flock of ducks in an enclosure just outside door. Asked bookseller when they'd gotten ducks & was told, "They've always been there."
