    Unfortunately, I can't help you on this......but I wanted to let you know that you seem like a sharp young man. I've noticed you referring to your father many times on SBR, and its easy to see your affection for him. Regardless of what present you get him, I can just about guarantee that he's extremely happy to have raised a loving, respectful son. In the end, that's what its all about.

    Good luck finding the right present.

    my old man is new to IM's, chat rooms...etc. actually he doesnt work the computer well at all, but i he talks to a handful of women around his age and i got him a new webcam...he can skype with them and some relatives etc... also got him a new wallet and money clip...if he likes to read a lot, look into a Kindle or if he wont use that, maybe just a gift card to Barnes and Nobles...

    dads are tough to buy for...they are like us, in that when we want something, we just go get it.

    dads are tricky- just gotta know what they like (because they dont NEED anything a lot of times)- maybe a giftcard to his favorite restaurant or something.

    When you ask him what he wants does he just say he doesn't need anything or not to get him a gift? Always tricky when people do that.

    I got my dad a new Mikita drill.

    He currently has an old Mikita drill that he's had for like 15 years that he likes but he's been saying for a couple years now he wants to get a good new mikita drill.

    This is a great fly-fishing rod for those that want quality, but don't want to spend over $600-$700.

    Working on a project that will yield some absolution. Being a good son. Leading by example. Sharing the fruits of my labor with my sister and mother. More abstract then concrete but still solid gifts any way you look at it.

    When my dad was getting quite old, he would typically never say what he wanted.

    So I gave him what I was sure he wanted. An audience to tell his old stories.

    In his last few years, I know he was very appreciative.

    So if you are still struggling to give him something, be sure and tell him how thankful you are for all he has given you. Chances are that will mean more to him than anything else.
