Be sure to tune in tonight to catch my friend and friend of this site Matthew B. Crawford on the Colbert Report . He’ll be talking about surly men, the need for speed, and his great book, Shop Class as Soulcraft . Hopefully he’ll also refer to himself as “the anti-Michael Scott.” Only one way to find out!
COOL POINTS BONUS: You’ll notice that Amazon customers who bought Shop Class as Soulcraft also bought Pride and Prejudice and Zombies .
