I'd probably choose the Segway, until I'm old enough to get a Vespa.

For those of you who don't know what a Vespa or a Segway is, I will provide some stunning visual effects.

Vespa. They seem more controllable than a Segway.

And also Ramrod's reason.

Plus, Segway had all that media hype that busted, but Vespa is still going strong. Huzah. Plus, it's more fun to ride a Vespa than some weird standy-scooter.

And I can only suppose that a Vespa looks easier to control than the Segway. Just ask Pres. Bush up there.

That is such a good metaphor for his Presidency. No matter what he does, he always falls flat on his face.

Vespa FTW. That's my inner trendy European talking.

And besides, my school district bought Segways for our security personnel...but NOT new textbooks or desks. Stuff we really NEED.

I'd rather I Vespa, but I once say a whole gaggle of people on segways come out of a building, do some figure-eights, and go back in. I thought that was pretty cool.

Normally I don't adovcate holding grudges, but I think that is a grudge well worth holding.

Oh, and get this, they also bought the head security guy at my school a little electric car to keep tabs on ditchers and to make sure all the cars in the parking lot have permits.

Le sigh. And here in college, we still have to pay 120 bucks for a text book that cost 8 bucks to make, from which the writer obtains almost no royalties. C'mon, people!

I would be caught dead on a Segway.



I actually rode a Segway once in Disney World. It was harder than I thought it would be, but if I had more than 14 seconds I might have gotten the hang of it better.

And you can't really take your significant other for rides on a Segway. :P

Both are cool, but the tech nerd inside me wants to figure out how the Segway works, how to ride it, ect, ect. The Vespa's just a scooter.

Although Ramrod makes a strong point.
