Happy birthday Cannon and off to Qatar he goes

I know he’s my youngest nephew but I can’t recall if he’s the youngest kid in the bunch. I do know it’s his birthday. What an odd treat, going on a 15-hour flight to live in Qatar. As I stated before, my brother-in-law got the gig to help build a new emergency training center. Cannon and his two brothers are off to a helluva’ adventure for about five years, maybe 10, depends on where they choose to attend university afterwards, not likely the Middle East.

Before they left, I did get the big brother’s e-mail set up. I had to make a sub-account via my overall Uverse setup because Hunter couldn’t remember the password to his original gmail. He must be an odd teenager. Name a kid who can’t recall something vital like a password? Sure, kids forget important things like phone numbers, chores and their homework. They always know how to keep adults out of their affairs. In my experience with technical support, they’re often better at defeating the security barriers adults put up on color printers, Web proxies and game-blocking software.

It’s Cannon’s day and I want to close with that. I hope he has an enjoyable flight. He’s much braver than his uncle…I’m jelly after four hours in a plane, after 15, I think I would be ready for a strait-jacket. The next trick will be sending gifts. We have no idea how expensive shipping is and what the emirate allows. They’ve recently granted exemptions to bacon yet it’s heavily taxed.
