I think he was brake checked and hooked off the cliff. They probably will make it look like a suicide. ;D I'm blaming Toonces.
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

just becuase you are rich doesn't mean you are smart.  come one riding a segway to the edge of cliff you got to be kidding me.

Or because your smart, doesn't mean you can spell.   :D

didn't the guy who invented the thing live in New Hampshire?  Sad to see the new owner go like that.  I've wanted a segway for years but damn they are expensive.
