Here's a multi-talented rider
How many of us can mow the lawn while riding your bike and chugging down a pint?

Some men say he could fly, some say he could swim, some say he could sing like Neil Sedaka....

I wonder if that's not one of those "hover" mowers. I had one years ago. Didn't keep it very long though...

Reminds me of a film where a texan was asked how he wanted his steak. He said "Just wipe the steer's ass, lop off it's horns and run it past me"

I've never seen a Lawn Mower like that . Looks like a Vacuum Cleaner . Brewski's and Lawn Mowing lead to lessening of the toes . Unless , of course , you're riding a unicycle . :confused:

Interestingly, Dean Kamen's inspiration for the Segway scooter came from unicycling, a hobby of his teen years.

that has only two wheels side-by-side, runs on electricity and steers by means of ? who-knows-how...
My friend at work (yes, I have only one friend, and he works with me ) said he saw a uniformed person (not a policeman) riding
one very slowly on the sidewalk just outside the building where we work.
The invasion has begun!
