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.

No post anywhere about shop class can be without a link to the following MST3K short:

Honestly, if these were the films dedicated to defending and expanding shop classes in public schools, I’m not surprised they had the opposite effect.
