Coming Attractions
Working of several new blog posts ... a few of the best I've done....
However after going to the movies a few weeks ago, and after seeing commercials for upcoming summer block busters, I thought;
"That’s what I need to do, Duh I am a marketing guy, I should know to build some anticipation with those who read my blog"So.... Here is a sneak peek of coming attractions.
Imagine this is being spoke in a big, booming, deep voice like you would hear in the movie theater…
"Coming soon to KevinMears.blogspot.com”
ROAD TRIP
"He thought it was just another trip to a Livestock Show, only difference was, this time, there was a girl along for the ride….But she had a secret."
"To her, it was a chance to let loose and get a way from that sleepy, small town that most folks never notice as they drive through it on their way to someplace else, someplace exciting”
“Little did either one know, that would change their lives forever…. And the fate of the world would be in there hands”
Now we cut to a preview of blog.
Scene 1
Let me tell you about “April” April was just amazing, so beautiful….So far out of my league… April had BIG, BIG hair… you know, Texas Hair, that really does not do it justice, more like “Texas Rodeo Queen” wearing white chaps and signing autographs and taking photos with fans at the at the Mall in Dallas, BIG hair…"
Scene 2
She and I were taking a nice stroll along the Riverwalk… one I had hoped might be romantic… a nice dinner, a nice walk along the river on a beautiful night, some stirring conversation between her & I… But what happened was far from what I had envisioned in my mind….

I should note that the balance of the world really wasn’t in our hands but it sounds exciting… if this was twitter the hashtag would be #truthinadvertising
"Also Coming This Month"
“The Obituary”
Have you examined your life or will you let the autopsy discover your cause of death?
She had really died years before the accident. Well, she was still breathing but she had stopped really living. She might as well crossed the centerline years earlier.
When you examine her life, its hard to tell what one thing had set events in motion that got her where she was the last few years. Sometimes people just quit, quit living, quite loving, quite caring, planning, and sadly, stop dreaming…

Leap Year Day
Just a quick little post on the fact that today is LEAP YEAR DAY… I think thats what you call it, but if not, I am stick with it.
Every four years we get a extra day, a day to do what ever we want with, but I noticed no one is very excited about it…..
You would think as excited as folks get when the clock falls back and everyone gets that extra hour of sleep for daylight savings time, folks would be dancing a Jig for a whole extra day…
---------------------------
Who celebrates February 29th for their birthday? As a kid I use to think this would be just awful, that you would only get to have a birthday party once every 4 years.
The closer I get to 40, I really kind of like the idea… However I guess you would still age at the same rate….
Do you know what the call children born on February 29th?
Leap Day Babies…
I would have thought it would have been, Leap Year Babies but on the web site dedicated to children born on this day. Yes, there is a website, heck probably multiple websites then some Facebook pages and groups, oh and I wager we have countless blogs, and I am just sure we have a twitter feed all dedicated to this rarest of days.
Well some of the folks who were born on the 29th includes;
Ja Rule Rapper
Antonio Sabato Jr. Actor
Tony Robbins Motivational Speaker
Jack Lousma Astronaut
Dinah Shore Actress and TV personality…..however she is most notable for my generation
and younger as her name is used to rhyme with Menorah in Adam Sandlers Hanukkah song.
There might be something to this ageing thing; all of those look incredible for their ages…..Well Dinah is dead, but she looked good right up until the end.
I use to tease and aggravate an ex-girlfriend much to my enjoyment and her dismay, that her birthday was on February 29th and that I was off the hook for getting her any gifts…
Oh I knew that wasn’t her birthday, then I would say
“It’s ok honey, I know your birthday is the 28th”
Sure hope folks took that last line about be being brilliant, in the, tongue-in-cheek way it was meant.
I always thought for us guys, that proposing on or getting marred on Leap Year Day would be ideal, this way when we inevitably forget to do something special to remember that day, at least 3 out of the 4 years we could say it wasn’t our fault.
Notable events on this day in history…I would have thought something big might
have happened on the 29th of February at some point in the past… Not so much.
1972 Hank Aaron is the 1st baseball player to sign for $200,000
1968 Beatles win a Grammy for “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Harts Club”
1960 The 1st Playboy club opened up in Chicago…
1940 “Gone with the Wind” wins 8 Oscars
What happened today that you will remember?
Anything?
Sometimes uneventful days are ok, even hoped for.
However today is a FREE day, it’s an EXTRA day… Don’t you think you should do something special with it?
Start a hobby
Give up a bad habit
Turn off the TV and pick up that book you’ve been eyeing
Sign up for that class you’ve wanted to take
Or perhaps it could be simpler....
You could….
Sit in silence, and reflect on where your life is at.
Phone that friend who’s been in your thoughts
Tell someone, you Love them.
(Even if your sure they already know it)
