Father’s Day Gift Ideas
My wife usually has a hard time getting me gifts. Mainly because I tell her not to get me anything. And when I do give her hints, I tell her don’t get it because its too expensive or because there are too many specs to figure out. However, this year I’m going to help my wife out by giving her a list of five things I would like for Father’s Day. You can help too by voting for your favorite.
Trip to Space
If I could, I would explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly go where no one has gone before. And if my wife really loves me, she would get me on the next flight to space. A trip to space costs a measly $20 million.
Jet Pack
For only $200,000, my wife can get me a nice jet pack that can travel at 83 mph and fly 250 feet up in the air. If I had a jet pack, I would be the coolest kid on the block…and I could toss water balloons at all the kids that make fun of me.
Porsche Carrera Cabriolet
If my wife doesn’t feel like spending over hundred grand this year, she can get me a new Porsche for a little over $80,000. Sorry kids, you can’t play with daddy’s new toy.
Segway
I think Segways are cool (but not as cool as a Porsche or a jet pack). I would like to zip around the neighborhood in one of these. And for less than $6000, I can.
Silver Surfer T-shirt
If my wife doesn’t love me enough to get one of the four gifts above, she can get a Silver Surfer t-shirt for me (and a matching one for my son - how cool is that?). Silver Surfer is my favorite super hero and I can’t wait to see the new Fantastic Four movie. Cost is $20-$30 for two t-shirts.
What should my wife get me for Father's Day?

I got your comment on my Father’s Day gift guide and popped on over.
I think your list is more in line with what men REALLY want, if somewhat less realistic ;)
BTW–I’m planning to put up a Father’s Day Button Blogroll (linking to buttons for Daddy Blogs) on my personal blog. I’ll send you an e-mail about it.
What do you mean less realistic? We’re billionaires.
I vote for the Segway, but mainly because I want one! It sure would help when I have to walk (for me) longer distances, so it’s practical as well as cool, don’tcha think?
Agree. The Segway is cool and pratical. I think I can also make money by charging people for rides.
Wait a minute. I think her present should just match up to the cost of the counter TV/radio. Is there anything you want that costs in between the Segway and T-shirts?
There’s the bike trailer that also doubles as a stroller. But we don’t have room to store it.
Yup… You’ve proved my point… Men are rediculous…
Why can’t they just be happy about a new toothbrush?
Cause there is nothing more frustrating than shopping for a gift for a “I don’t need a gift” that turns into “So what do I get?” when the day in question arrives…
But that’s part of the fun of being married.
I’d be happiest with the Segway. Seriously.
If I didn’t have kids, I would consider selling one the cars and drive a Segway instead.
um, hello? JET PACK!!!! It should come with a fireproof cape, too, so you can make everyone think you’re superman.
If the cape wasn’t fireproof, it’ll catch on fire and I can be the Human Torch.
I think the jet pack would be cool. If you get one, can I borrow it?
Sure, you can borrow it. Maybe we can go 50-50 on it. You use it for a month and I use for the next month.
I voted for the T-shirts because that seems more appropriate. Wouldn’t you and Spiderboy look great in matching shirts? A jet pack would be cool, too. Then you could pretend to be the Silver Surfer.
Great idea! If I mount the jet pack on a surf board, it would be perfect for transforming me into the Silver Surfer.
You already come from outer space, so the trip to space is out.
The jet pack is cool, but I can just see you souping it up like Tim Allen in Home Improvement and seriously burning your buns. We wives hate it when we burn buns, so that’s out.
The silver Surfer shirt is cool, but unless you plan on getting braces and pimples with it… I’d say no.
I’m voting for a Porsche because I know that’s what my husband would want. ;)
GOTTA go with the Porsche!!! ;)
Maybe could mommy froever could save $10 million by buying you a one way ticket into space?! lol … just an idea ;)
The only thing I would want for Father’s Day would be for Madeleine McCann to be found ALIVE and able to be back with her Daddy.
