For True Confessions Day:Confessions told from Video Tombstones and a book called "Cemetery of Lies"
The Californer/10340800

BAY AREA, Calif. - Californer -- In addition to being the Ides of March, March 15th is also National True Confessions Day.

"And when you are thinking about things you might want to get off your chest for True Confessions Day, you might also want to think about the kinds of things you might want to start recording if you decided you wanted to have a video tombstone after you die," says Robert Barrows of San Mateo, California.

Barrows is the inventor of a video tombstone called the Video Enhanced Gravemarker (U.S. Patent #7,089,495) and he has also written a book based on stories told through video tombstones. The book is called "Cemetery of Lies."

"Cemetery of Lies" is a collection of intimate secret confessions, as told from beyond the grave, through video tombstones, says Barrows.

The stories are about life and love, sex and romance, good and evil, success and money, and heaven and hell, says Barrows.

And since March 15th is True Confessions Day, imagine the confessions we might hear from video tombstones?

WHAT WOULD YOU SAY FROM YOUR OWN VIDEO TOMBSTONE?

1) Would you just say sweet things to loved ones?

2) Would it finally be time to tell your side of the story?

3) Would it be time to make amends?

4) Or, would it be time to say everything you never had the guts to say nor the opportunity to say while you were still alive?

THEY SAY "DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES"....Well, not anymore! Wait until you hear what they might be saying about you from the video tombstones down at the graveyard...and will it be truth or lies?

"In addition to creating a lot of controversy, video tombstones will also create some very interesting free speech issues," according to Barrows.

PLUS, since the video tombstone is an ideal storytelling device for all kinds of stories from horror stories to love stories to secret confession stories to  mysteries, to whodunits, to action/adventure stories and even historical pieces, video tombstones will also create a whole new genre of storytelling, perfect for movies, books and TV, to which I humbly submit, "Cemetery of Lies."
