I'm not sure how it started but there is a new pastime that is surely going to sweep the country - Segway Spotting. While we wait for the inevitable Trainspotting movie sequel, I'll start by including a few starter pics.

These are actual pics of my Segway taken in the first month after I bought it. Round, round, get around, it gets around...

Here is the Segway chillin' in the forest preserve:

You may think I'm fooling
For the foolish things I do
You may wonder how come I love you
When you get on my nerves like you do
Well baby, you know you bug me
There ain't no secret about that
Well come on over here and hug me
And, baby, I'll spill the facts
Well, honey it ain't your money
Cause baby I got plenty of that

I love you for your pink cadi-- Segway

To each his own I guess.

What was that expression again? You can lead a Segway to water but ...

This is the second guy to tell me that I can't ride the Seg into the park - but he doesn't quite seem to grasp the irony here.

Stopping in at the FedEx-Kinkos...

Yes, I would like 100 copies of this Segway. Can you have that done by lunchtime?

Though I was crusin' along at 2.5 miles over the posted limit, the officer was kind enough to let me off with a warning after I let her take a spin.

This is probably as close as we'll get to an amphibious Segway.

How this for a spectacular shot? Chicago's own version of the Champs D'Elysee, a breathtaking view made even more magnificent with the subtle addition of the Segway.

Dress rehearsal before the big show. Sometimes I like to come out on the stage before the crowds show up, when everthing is still and quiet, no costumes or makeup, without the glare of the spotlight, and just take in the moment.

(yeah, this is not a great shot, you have to squint a little to see the Segway on the stage)

No question... The Segway on the couch wins my vote for best spotting!

Hats off!

"I'm just jazzed to be on the show, man."

Okay -- so I'm telling you that the Segway needs to go have a cup of coffee and hit the CTA -- c'mon -- please tell me you take requests!

I scream, you scream, we all scream for Segways. Freakin' sweet!

Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day. But let him take a spin on the Segway and he'll forget all about that silly parable...

No MAN! Rook to Queen 5! Seriously, you should go back to parchesi.

"I do not, for one, think that the problem was that the band was down. I think that the problem *may* have been, that there was a Stonehenge monument on the stage that was in danger of being *crushed* by a *Segway*. Alright? That tended to understate the hugeness of the object."

I am sending this to Microsoft to replace the default background for the next version of Windows. Its soooo much nicer than that silly green hillside!

Now, I'm not saying the Segway has any supernatural powers or anything but check out these BEFORE and AFTER pics

Tailgating at last week's Bears game. Normally a raucous affair, the Segway refused to whoop it up, preferring instead to keep true to the assigned post of Designated Driver.

Another collision of art and technology...

No, sillies, you're supposed to ride them. I guess noone reads instruction manuals these days. Sheesh!

Had to take a brief moment to pause here at this vista point to survey my future.

One day, lad, all this will be yours.

What, the Segway?

Celebrating World Series Champs!




Notice the official ticker-tape?





Apparently I was not the only one who had this idea. We quickly became friends of course but neither of us were Sox fans or actually that interested in baseball...
