call of duty

Way back at the start of September a friend of mine made a promise to her son. If he did all his homework, without having to be told, and with no complaint, she would in return go and queue up at midnight on the release of this game. She never imagined he would manage it.

But sure enough he faultlessly studied, bringing home the best grades of his life. And to her credit she queued from midnight through to three, so she could have it waiting for him in the morning.

That's what I call the Call Of Duty.
