The ex-newspaper editor took great delight in making fun of President Bush for falling off a Segway - the two-wheeled, motorised, gyroscopically balanced scooter that, its makers promise, will never fall over. However, he was bitten by karma and suffered the same fate as Bush.

OWNED.
Sweet. I refuse (chuckle) to take delight (giggle) in the misfortunes of (tears running down cheeks) of a pretentious git such as Morgan. < John Wayne voice > “Like hell I won’t!” < /voice >
In 2007 he broke three of his ribs in a Segway accident, two years after having called American President George W. Bush an "idiot" for doing the same. However he still managed to perform as a judge for the finale of America's Got Talent shortly after.

Holy cow! I hope he doesn't turn the gyroscopic disruptor field up too high! Bam! There go the seasons.
u=you. Typing on a Treo is not as easy as typing on a desktop. Maybe you should think before you write.
Stupid poetic justice!
I’d lay off the mountain bikes and pretzels if I were him.
(And I predict: hybrid cars are the new Segways..)
when he is 80, and when winter comes, I hope his ribs still ache and remind him.
What a jerk.
Since he said only an idiot could "make a pigs ear" out something as simple as riding a Segway we should all go to the pet store and buy some pigs ears to send him. He would have more than a full "delete" file on his email system to remind him of the irony.
Marty Robbins, The Strawberry Roan Lyrics
I was hangin' 'round town, just spendin' my time Out of a job, not earnin' a dime A feller steps up and he said, "I suppose You're a bronc fighter from looks of your clothes." "You figures me right, I'm a good one." I claim "Do you happen to have any bad ones to tame?" Said "He's got one, a bad one to buck At throwin' good riders, he's had lots of luck." I gets all het up and I ask what he pays To ride this old nag for a couple of days He offered me ten; I said, "I'm your man, A bronc never lived that I couldn't span." He said: "Get your saddle, I'll give you a chance" In his buckboard we hopped and he drives to the ranch I stayed 'til mornin' and right after chuck I stepped out to see if this outlaw can buck. Down in the horse corral standin' alone Is an old Caballo, a Strawberry Roan His legs are all spavined, he's got pigeon toes Little pig eyes and a big Roman nose Little pin ears that touched at the tip A big 44 brand was on his left hip U-necked and old, with a long, lower jaw I could see with one eye, he's a regular outlaw. I gets the blinds on 'im and it sure is a fright Next comes the saddle and I screws it down tight Then I steps on 'im and I raises the blinds Get outta the way boys, he's gonna unwind He sure is a frog-walker, he heaves a big sigh He only lacks wings, for to be on the fly He turns his old belly right up to the sun He sure is a sun-fishin', son-of-a-gun. He's about the worst bucker I've seen on the range He'll turn on a Nickel and give you some change He hits on all fours and goes up on high Leaves me a spinnin' up there in the sky I turns over twice and I comes back to earth I lights in a cussin' the day of his birth I know there are ponies that I cannot ride There's some of them left, they haven't all died. I'll bet all my money, the man ain't alive That'll stay with Old Strawberry When he makes his high dive. |
"Get well soon.
Idiot."
Claims of 'a revolutionizing vehicle'... and boasts that 'it would need its own lane'... got my imagination going.
Then, it made its debut... and what a let-down!
HA!! HA!!
SCHADENFREUDE!
RoveBushHaliburtonWarforOil’s fault.

Looking at the video, he tried to hop a curb with one of those things. He is an idiot.........
