If you still have your dad, and are always wondering what to buy him, here’s a list. This is actually my list.
!. Aqua Velva. I know you think we like the expensive stuff at Nordstrom’s, but we don’t really. We are not really sure how much to put on. We don’t want to smell like Johnny going to the Prom and making everyone’s eyes water as he passes by. How much of that expensive stuff do you use? A dab, or five? With AV, we just splash it all over. Plus one bottle lasts exactly one year. $5.
2. Garage Art. This is this year’s version of the singing bass. Every man likes a gift that borders on being stupid. Compellingly stupid. This would be worth it if only for what the neighbors would think. This picture goes on your garage door. See more examples here. $229.
3. I saw this car/airplane video this morning and now I want it. Years ago, I wanted this car-boat combination but I didn’t get it either. 
4. A Segway. I have wanted one since they first came out. No, I don’t really have a place to ride it. No, I didn’t hear 
that the owner of the company was killed riding his. No, I don’t care that Ellen DeGeneres fell 2-3 times on hers. I just want one.

GL, you really are getting funnier all the time! LOL You have us guys pegged perfectly.
Carol purchased a Segway tour of San Francisco for my 60th BDay. It was so much fun! They are a hoot, although I managed to tangle wheels with another guy and munch my knee on the pavement. That was easy to ignore with the fun of the thing, though and they do make off-road versions. They also have a Segway Polo League out here that we could join and compete against guys like Steve Wozniak.
I never thought I would say this. I want to live in California. A Segway Polo League!!! See, if I had that plane I could fly out for the games. I get to play defense, ok?

Dude, you could be the Segway Polo middle linebacker!
I love the garage art although not sure the neighbors would appreciate me having it up. The segway has always looked incredibly fun! Why walk when you can scoot?
Why indeed? John, but that is THE point. You always want your neighbors to think you are just a little bit crazy.
Conrad…you have to send me more information on this Segway Polo League. It sounds way more fun than soccer, doncha think?
Conrad–nevermind. I just used the Google and found out all kinds of information about Segway Polo. Oh man, oh man.
one bottle of hi karate coming up.
It did not make it here in time.
You go for the expensive stuff.
Thanks Karla. Now, THIS is a good idea.
