Walking across the country so you don't have to...
Photo Gallery

Pictures and Videos
The plan is to put up pictures from wherever we happen to be on the trip. Sometimes this will be over a mobile-phone Internet connection, sometimes we'll be borrowing a friendly person's phone line and other times we'll be shipping a CD-ROM disc full of images to the site caretaker, Chris, who will then update them for us. Don't worry, we've already got some totally stupid ones for you...

Videos are not edited, so there may be some rare foul language, depending on the video.  Other than that, though, they are "clean."

Note that these are now some pretty old videos, so apologies for the quality!

Hey, we don't guarantee that these photos or videos will make you laugh, cry, love us or hate us.  We do promise that some of them might be kind of cool.  Well, we hope you find some of them worth the photons.  Although, some of them will definitely blow chunks.  Can we say that on the radio?  Blow Chunks.  It's kind of fun to say.

Oh, yeah, sorry, back to the disclaimer: In other words, we take pictures of stuff and you look at the stuff we took pictures of.  We mean nothing in particular by taking the pictures, other than the fact that we thought the stuff was picture-worthy at the time.  If that's not a good enough disclaimer, and you're a lawyer-person and think you can do better, then fine!  Let us know and maybe we'll put your fancy bo bancy disclaimer here!

Almost forgot; these images and videos are copyright YouGuysAreStupid.com and cannot be used without the express permission of the owners (which would be Andy, Erik and John.)  On the other hand, we're not going to tell you not to send any of these pix to your friends... just make sure to tell them where you got the pictures!
