D.C. Last Thoughts

I saw something that appealed to me on many different levels. It was a little bit sad as well as funny, death defying, inspiring, entertaining, heart wrenching and one of those deals where you know you are not supposed to stare but you can't look away.

Near the White House there is a place where you can rent a fantastic transportation device called a Segway. I watched in awe as a guy suffering from Parkinson's disease was scooting around on one. I know, that's wrong, but the principle and mechanics of the machine are based on the individual's body motion to navigate it. I'm sorry, but that was some funny stuff.



The look of terror and delight on the guy's face tickled me. Made me wonder about the person that rented it to him. Mr. Jokey Joke, Mr. Equal Opportunity or Mr. Get Rich Quick Off Of Insurance Settlement?
