Facing 50: An Essay In Aging -- Available at $10 each in booklet form, as long as they last, or the planet does. Early drafts of a work rejected by every major publishing interest in New York City, according to an agent who wasn't an agent but may some day wish he had been, given the ascent of this honkey's career.

Troutstream: The Original Beers -- From 1982 to 1997, Troutstream was a printed newsletter. During that time, about 55 newsletters were mailed to friends throughout America, as well as Indiana. Anyone deranged enough to want to read them again can do so -- for an embarrassingly large amount of money, that is. $25.

Troutstream: The Newspaper Beers -- From 1976 to 1987, Troutstream did business as Trout Pomeroy, newspaper reporter/columnist/music critic. This collection features the best of the beast from that new era in potato chips. (Potato chips?). $15.

Troutstream: The Early Beers -- From 1960 to 1976, Troutstream was a very young person whose writings reflected politics, the counter culture and many points in-between. This collection seeks to explore the outer edges of the inner ear, as heard for the first time in stereo about fifteen minutes ago. $15.

Changeless Change -- On the road, notebook in hand. Images from the highway, variations on growth as perceived by slim hitchhiker from 1969-1971. One critic said, "This thing is long." $25.
