Yeh, read the Lileks piece, but read the C.S. Lewis piece he invokes, too…
Lileks’ Screedblog today is a classic rant against the neutering of the American man.

That is a mere taste, a crumb from the table.

C.S. Lewis’ Men Without Chests.
There will be a test. Likely when you least expect it…
(Oh, h/t Glenn Reynolds for reminding me to check James Lileks’ Screedblog today.)
