Generally speaking, zebras tend to think in terms of black

and white. But ever so often, there comes along a zebra who

is capable of thinking in terms of the whiter shades of pale

and the paler shades of white. Such a zebra wonders about

Heidegger's concept of 'Geworfenheit', which leads it to ask:

"Why was I thrown into the world as just another zebra

instead of a magnificent thoroughbred and a Triple

Crown winner like Secretariat?"

"Hey, Zebe! Still interested in finding out what

it's like to be a dolphin?"
