Segway Gift!

panderso · 11-16-2005, 01:01 PM

Our president gave a SEGWAY HT to Japan's president on his current trip. This is from an article on www.msnbc.com

Instead, they focused on friendship. Bush called Koizumi his “buddy” and gave him a Segway standup motorized scooter as a gift.

HAHA, I don't have a political thing to comment, just an ironic one...

so a man who fell off a Segway (I love the quote that they're "tricky to ride"...whatever) gave one to a man who runs a country where they're illegal to ride.

whatever.

So here's the big question:

Was it a p133? An i180? If so, what color?!?

Does anyone know if photos were taken?

Hope Segway sales don't plummit like the Son-of-a-Bush's poll numbers.

Never thought I'd miss Nixon.

P.S. I think we got our revenge for Pearl Harbor my nuking civilian cities over there, no?

OK, guys. I'm going to move this to off-topic, because it's getting political. Politics can go in off topic.
