Wow - that reminds me of one about a taxi driver who gave a man a lift and wondered why the passenger had given him his own (the taxi driver's) address to go to. It so happened that the passenger was having an affair with the taxi driver's wife. Well, his sins found him out.

I'll bet that Dean Kamen, inventor of the Segway is surprised to find he is dead.....Unfortunately for company owner J.W. Heselden he ran one off of cliff and perished in 2010.
