<p>I present to you winter Segway!!!</p>

22

<p>i’ve seen a guy on a segway. don’t think he was a “kid” though. a little older than that</p>

23

<p>there is only one person with a segway at cornell. And honestly i consider him a kid for actually bringing one here and riding it EVERYWHERE</p>

24

<p>lol whats wrong with riding a segway? it’s more convenient than bring a car… and i saw a professor with a segway today</p>

25

<p>You are all just jealous.</p>

26

<p>haha i love how he’s just universally known as “segway kid”</p>

<p>that part of the magic show was hilarious, and then the whole segway thing…</p>

27

<p>I have no idea who you guys are talking about. Then again I’ve had swine flu since Sunday and haven’t been to class all week. And I’m not a freshmen so when I was going to class I took a different route that he would have. **** I’m so far behind in my classes right now, damn swine flu.</p>

28

<p>^ Ouch.</p>

<p>I dunno if I had it or not. I felt like my head was gonna explode and had a fever but I dragged myself to class (sometimes) haha. Took like 4 days to clear up. Mild case maybe? Dunno.</p>

29

<p>Mine wasn’t that bad either, I was only super sick for 2 days, I was just being conscientious towards other people to avoid spreading it. I’m going back to class tomorrow though.</p>

30

<p>I saw the Segway kid, same and only guy. He usually rides his way through the road north and parallel of Tower Road thru the south side of Rockafellar Hall.
He does wear a suit, not that anyone else has mentioned that. Also he sometimes leaves the segway unlocked, lol. I kind of don’t mind it, everyone is “special” in a way. Besides, I rather have more people riding along with segways and racing each other to class lol. It’s more fun that way.</p>

31

<p>@ ZFanatic: Thanks for exposing us! :stuck_out_tongue: lol.</p>

32

<p>

</p>

<p>same here but all of my professors are really helpful right now. they emailed me all of the assignments and everything.</p>

33

<p>^^ i figured you’d enjoy being just like the other 500 of us who’ve been sick lately.</p>

<p>Share the wealth :D</p>

34

<p>did you guys know Segway kid got a ticket? since he’s technically on a ‘motorized vehicle’ and isn’t allowed to drive on the sidewalks, the CUPD caught him a couple of days ago and told him he has to ride in the street from now on. hahahaha</p>

35

<p>I’ve noticed that some people are not caring in the word if they get others sick. Literally, some don’t cover their mouths, cough in the hands and touch something, or does other nasty things to spread the germs.
There was this girl (mostly girls I’ve been noticing) actually take pride in getting their suite mates sick, which is lol.</p>

<p>Wow, the Segway Kid got ticketed lol. That may explain why I haven’t seen him for about a week now. How’d you find out?</p>

36

<p>The segway kid is named William, and hes the man haha, I stopped him to ask him about his segway and whatnot, yes, he is a little odd but hes pretty funny in the same way.</p>

37

<p>i know girls who when they are sick, cough on others on PURPOSE, IN THEIR FACE.</p>

38

<p>Hi all,</p>

<p>I was rather bemused to see this thread had gotten so many views, so I felt obliged to register an account and say hi.</p>

<p>In case there was any question as to the awesomeness of Segways, I’d like to draw your attention to the following quote from today’s Daily Sun, which I believe settles the matter quite succinctly:</p>

<p>“It seems like the only thing going right in the world is that the HEROIC Segway has made its way onto this campus. FINALLY! Yes, you know who we’re talking about. There’s that kid on the Segway, gloriously segwaying across the Arts Quad every day and we’re jealous. There hasn’t been a better mode of transportation to hit the Hill since the HEROIC Green Hornet Party Bus. Screw podcars, Segways are the way of the future.”
