Reader Tim Paul encounters celebrity chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten avec Segway: "Photo taken Saturday night, Broadway at corner of Leonard. Saw him again an hour later on Church Street outside of 66 giving rides and seemingly enjoying the attention of a large crowd of onlookers. I got a ride. Unlike our dufus president, I didn't fall off. Jean-Georges said he got the thing in the mail that day from Amazon.com."
