Socrates once said that understanding the question is half the answer. But Socrates didnÕt have internet, so what the hell did he know. Burning Questions, the third in the Read It If You Have Nothing Better To Do trilogy of best non-sellers by Joe Beutel, refutes the assumption that every question needs an answer and that everything you read makes you smarter.
In it, the acclaimed writer of Shit You Just CanÕt Say In A Starbucks, a book of really good poetry, and the Book Of Wings, a book about chicken wings, poses questions simply, rhetorically, and often stupidly leading readers down mental dead ends and into the intellectual abyss.
