Police Segway

Posted Saturday, June 12th, 2004 at 8:12 am

Though Indy is great, my brief layover in Chicago makes me miss big cities. I had to swith terminal, so I had a bit of walking to do. Two escalators and several moving side walks later, I arrived to my gate.

On the way I passed a police officer riding a Segway - one of two-wheeled gigs you ride standing up. I once rode one in Times Square. They are really cool.

Making everything that much cooler is my iPod. Nothing beets having a personal soundtrack when you travel. But in Indy I rarely use it because we drive everywhere. Then again, in Indy, I don’t have to spend $9 for a salad and coke.

Gmail Stock Plummets

A few weeks ago, I sold a Gmail account for $75. The market has dropped to less than $20 since it appears Google has offered up a bunch more for free. I was given another three invitations to give out. Who will be the lucky winners? We’ll see.

I leave for Vancouver tomorrow morning at 6 a.m.
