Michael Perry is an old friend of Zulkey.com. The author of Truck: A Love Story and Population:485 – Meeting Your Neighbors One Siren at a Time, the humorist has a new CD/download of his stories called The Clodhopper Monologues Live. Take a listen to two excerpts! Enjoy Perry, who I declare was agra-cool before that was a thing (and before I just made up that word.) You can find out much more about him here.
