The Why of the Barkley: (and Pretty Much Everything Else)

By Rich Barkley Scritch Limacher

What begins as an exploration into why a certain popular long and brutal Tennessee footrace exists soon expands (rather humorously) into a much broader philosophical examination of why anything at all exists. Two runners in the race don't actually get very far, but spend most of their time discussing it and arguing their thoughts about almost everything. They don't like each other very much either, but they've haplessly stuck together (for survival) and do respect one another's ideas (while trying forever to argue them down). This is adventure not in the physical but in the mental sense. It will challenge just about everything you hold sacred and believe in, and it should make you think. This is not for the passive masses, the followers-blindly, or those intellectually squeamish peeps that happen to find themselves already entered--without asking why--in the (human) race, "the race that eats its young."
