don’t tell mom

Brian Dunn (@bjdsr) of Best Buy shared this Skype story in an interview with the New York Times. My sons are big basketball freaks. My wife, too. So I?m in London and I can?t sleep. It?s 4 in the morning, so I go on NBA.com and I?m watching the Lakers and Utah game. And all of a sudden my little Skype video chirps, and it?s my three sons on their computer talking to me and they?re whispering. I said, ?Why are you guys whispering?? And it?s about 11 at night back home. They said, ? ?cause Mom will kick our ass if she knows that we?re up.? And so I said: ?Well if she walks in the room, click me off, man. Don?t let her know I?m part of it.? But I?m sitting there watching the game with the boys and the only thing I can?t do is put my arm around them. I?m on the road 100 days a year, so those moments are really important. tags: skype, london, nba, family, bjdsr, bestbuy, briandunnCall me at +1-510-316-9773, Skype me, follow @skypejournal and @Phil Wolff.
