Contrary to popular belief....it has been extensively documented that the wheelbarrow race
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheelbarrow_race
was invented as a fun game for the ancient partnership that was the Dung Beetle and Pachyderm Poo.
Records indicate that in the early years Elephant Crap and Dung beetle maintained close alliances and this unique form of joined transportation evolved between the two. Both finding advantages to this union this elite relationship lasted for many thousand of years.
It is just in recent times that the Elephant Poo has decided that it just can not be arsed anymore and the Dung beetle, not being the brightest member of this duo, just has not comprehended it yet. For thousands of years the Elephant Crap and Dung beetle would be seen to be moving in the direction that the beetle was pointing...only now...in this new age....is the reverse noticed......it's just that the beetle has not realised this yet.
