New York, NY -- In his 17 years bicycling across America, stand-up comic Tom Snyders has photographed more than 7000 bizarre road signs. That includes the sign for "Ron's Guns and Computers" store in Wyoming, as well as motorist warning signs near several prisons which read, "Hitchhikers May be Escaped Inmates." The bicycling comic gives a slide show of his signs as part of his act and says he realized long ago, "it was getting more laughs than anything I was saying." Snyders spots most of his finds on the back roads of small towns, and he's quite a shutterbug. During a recent bike ride from Florida to New York, he shot eight rolls of film documenting silly signs. Still, there are the ones that got away, such as the sign outside Die, Pennsylvania, which reads "Die Seven Miles Ahead." Snyders is still killing himself over missing that one. Two-hundred of Snyders' best sign snaps are featured in a new book, "National Lampoon's Big Book of True Facts" (St. Martin's).
