"Look Wide" is the Venturer Scout motto in Austalia. (Ages 14-18) It can mean to keep your eye out "for service" (that is, helping other people) or to dream big.
The painting may look odd because it was probably painted by a fifteen year-old :P
(This is coming from a Queen's Scout, who has just linked from Venturers to Rovers)
Now that I look back on the photo, "Be prepared" "Look wide" and "For service" are 3 separate scouting quotes... So maybe it's not that inappropriate, just that people outside the scouting movement won't get it...
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

Maybe when you come here for service, you're supposed to try to wear an outfit that makes you look fatter, or wider, than you really are. Lol! :)
Senator Craig, is that you?
I'm totally lurking on this blog because, really, what more is there to say? But I'm a HUGE fan. Thanks for my daily laugh.
look wide is a motto for some organization. Like "be prepared" for the boy scouts. I forget which organization.
Those paintings are so creepy.
