As if the stereotype of the fat cop with a mouthful of donuts chasing a perp isn’t already deeply ingrained in American culture… now cops in Chicago are getting segways. For half a million you can get a hundred segways, with parts, and it seems like the trend is growing since the article claims that cops are a key market for the scooter.

Honestly, I think it’s a pretty good idea because it does let the police stand taller and cover more ground but I think it’d be funny to see a police officer on something I usually associate with nerds, i.e. myself.

Peter Carlino is brilliant. He wants to open a barbershop where the barbers would be lingerie-clad girls. It gets a little better. When you schedule an appointment with one of the lovely ladies, you can also pick what they’ll wear when they cut your hair. Some folks, like Mary-Francis Labrecque in the article, aren’t happy but there isn’t any nudity and women are allowed to do whatever they want… it’s the new millennium for crying out loud.
