I can totally see the Segway for people with mobility issues. Even mall cops, to be honest. Hell, I don't even like to double back once to get Starbucks when I figure out it's on the other end of the mall... pacing the place all day would be terrible. This guy clearly doesn't NEED it though... I mean he was twisting himself in all kinds of weird angles to scrub the blood off various nooks and crannies in his sweet van. And when people drive down Newbury street on the things, all smug and forcing people to dodge out of their way, I kind of want to hit them. But then most forms of smugness trip my "murder death kill" reflex. I meant the article more to poke fun at this curiously creepy guy than hate on the Segway.

While they look dorky i've had the chance to use them and they can get up there in speed. My Dad has an off-road version lol since he has a reallllly long gravel driveway. Plus hes old, and his in-laws has problems walking so the segway is a great easy way to get around for them. I actually think segways are rad man.

I mean, are people really too lazy to walk at a moderate pace? Or too cool to take mass transit? Either way, I guess people like this make the rest of us feel a little more normal.

He parks his just inside the doorway of one of the buildings downtown. When he putts around the city he always wears a shit-eating grin, so smug in the fact that he can go almost as fast on wheels as I can on my feet. We have a CSG in Keene, too.
