After the meeting in TLW I went to OMF Lit even if I was told it'd be closed because of inventory days. Well, I don't know but I just wanted to really see if OMF is closed or not. Well, it's closed and will be closed till Thursday.
There's probably one good reason why I was led to OMF today. After getting off the bus I walked down towards OMF and lo! When I looked up, in the right face of the building, there was a huge tarpaulin of Do Hard Things with Alex and Brett in it! Well, it was so surprising since that huge tarpaulin could have passed for a small billboard and another thing is that the twins' faces are in it. That probably would have been their biggest picture ever! And it was actually disturbing.
I didn't have my camera so I wasn't able to take a picture of it. Well, allow me to explain anyway, why I thought it was disturbing. On the tarpaulin, it's written... "Teen Years Aren't A Time Out. Real Life is NOW." Beside that is a photo of the twins, the one that's at the back of Do Hard Things.

Well, see that photo? Imagine, my dear if it's multiplied to a hundredfold larger image. Now that you have a hundredfold larger image of them in your mind, imagine it's twilight and you're walking down a street. You suddenly look up and see that HUGE image. Would you not rather be frightened with those eyes looking down on you? Such questioning eyes. If I hadn't known these guys, I would have contemptuously glared at them as I have the habit of glaring at irritable posters and billboards.
At least, next time I shan't be glaring nor will be disturbed at that huge banner. I'll be glad because it'll be up there to stir curiosity among pedestrians who'd dare look up and meet the twins' gaze. Perhaps they shall ponder on their way home what on earth is Do Hard Things. That'd be awesome!

UPDATE: I went to OMF this afternoon to buy more Do Hard Things and to take a photo of the Harris twins' billboard. Here are they...
