    I can't wait until his estate sues the company.

    I have to admit when I saw this story on the wire this morning I cracked up out loud.

    I admit that I laughed when I heard it to. And it seems to have brought out the snark in a lot of folks.

    A friend linked this story on Facebook with the following comment: "He died doing what he loved best...being lazy."

    And the guys at EveryDayShouldBeSaturday tweeted this with the following comment: "I'mnotlaughing I'mnotlaughing I'mnotlaughing"

    There'd have been a funner way to take that concept to heart.

    And it may have seemed dangerous to be so close to a cliff, but that's how he rolled.

    Wow. Through smarts and hard work, the guy became rich. Now he's a punchline.

    Why does God hate free-market capitalism?

    I just noticed that Road Runner has "BYH" written on his sign. Strange.

    But this is not the guy that invented the Segway.

    That's not the Road Runner. That's Buck.
