What should I get my father in law for his birthday? I have an easy time shopping for women, but for men, I just don't know!

    Slippers? Soap on a rope? A tie?

    What are his interests?

    He likes technology, but I have no idea what he has, what he doesn't have, etc...

    I know he already has every tool you can think of in his garage.

    He works from home, so he wouldn't wear ties.

    If he's a nerdy kind of guy (and has a sense of humor) and he works from home, maybe you could get him a funny nerdy t-shirt. The snorgtees.com website that advertises on here has some really funny nerdy ones.

    Gift certificate to his favorite restaurant or perhaps movie tickets with the drinks and popcorn set.

    If he's old, then buy a gag gift. They forget all the "good" gifts, but remember the gags!
