Chris - my hubby doesn't really *need* anything...I got him something which I think is kind of cool... DH loves meat - his dad is a butcher - so I ordered Kobe sirloins and burgers to be sent to the house. Kobe beef is from Japan and is supposedly the best there is. We've never tried it and have always wanted to. I figure it will make for a special father's day dinner...as long as DH doesn't over cook them, LOL! here's the link if anyone is interested www.usdaorganicbeef.com/kobewabe.htmlI just hope they get here in time...shipping was supposed to be 24 hours! yikes! laurie

Case of beer and a 42 inch plasma TV. Year before last, Charlie made me a photo at school, piece of cardboard cut into shape of a camera with his photo pasted on a circular opening where the lens would be. Last year I got a "best dad" tee shirt decorated with the hand prints of both my little boys. Bet mom had fun making that one. Besides, too much beer and TV is not good for anyone. But really good sex, now everybody can enjoy that. And it's healthy. Just something to think about. -- Bob

I really have no idea what mine is getting. I figured since it was FATHER'S day, and my 16 yr old son is now mobile, I put him in charge of finding something for his dad!

Gee Bob, why are you holding back, LOL! Ahem, meanwhile, Al's 40th bday is the next day, so he's getting a whole bunch of goodies. Lobster dinner. Then, a golf bag caddy-thingy (not a person, lol), a hammock, an inflatable football player that you through a football at and it's arm is in the shape of a circle with a net attached. The guy has got to start playing sports with his son, so thought that would be a fun way of getting him off the couch! Ahem, and maybe ahem, I'll throw in some of what Bob suggested.
You know, the beer!
Happy Fathers Day guys!!!

Well, being that we are still in the newlyweds stage of life Brian already gets all the "beer" he can handle! LOL ;D I don't know what to get him. I had bought him the racing experience for Christmas and he has told me a million times that I will not be able to top that so now I just feel at a total loss as to what to get him. Maybe I just need to not pressure myself thinking I need to top it. LOL The day that he did the race car driving he was going on and on and on and on and on and on about how I was never going to top it, about 6 hours later he finally looked at me when he was saying that and said, "well, except for when you have my baby". Awwwww, he pulled that one out of his be-hind didn't he? He was very proud of himself for coming up with that one, but it worked, I think he got some "beer" that night too! What a lucky guy. Jessie

Lets see DH is getting his boat motor fixed and of course more BLASTED tools, ok one question just how many tools does one man need LOL, and then of course he'll need another tool chest thingy and silly me thought the garage was to keep your cars in. As for my Dad he LOVES to get things from the kids, we usually have a shirt made, one shirt we did had the kids pics on the front with their names, on the back we had NOW APPEARING with their names and birthdays (Ok it also helps him remember the Birthdays LOL) and under that list since me and my sister were pregnant we had COMING ATTRACTIONS and their names of course the question marks for the Birthday . This year Dad has requested an outside Thermometer and calculator tape since he has a fit if his checkbook is even a penny off LOL, since I can't bring myself to buy him just the tape he is also getting a gift card for the Casino and of course a cool T-shirt. For those golfers out there we are getting my FIL a gag gift, a wedge that goes on your shoe and a gift cert. for green time.

I know if we were to give DH a Carton of beer and a Plasma TV... I would be safe from the other thing Bob mentioned....although I would have to throw in a new X-Box game too... then he will never pull himself off the couch...
