Well, at least the gas tank doesn't explode in a giant fireball....

TBOGG informs me (well, he informs readers of his blog, of which I am one) that a recall has been placed on the Segway. Apparently those nifty gyroscopes that keep the thing upright don't work so well when the batteries are low. Whoops.

I'm reminded, of course, of the episode of Friends in which Ross and Chandler have an escalating duel of prank messages about one another on their college's alumni bulletin board. It culminates when Chandler posts that Ross has died in a blimp accident; Ross confronts Chandler, who replies, "It kills more than one person every year!"
