His real gift is that we all go fishing at a little pond. He loves to do that on Father's Day. Help send me some pixie dust to hold off the rain, please! Thanks! Still need to figure out what to do for my Dad. thinking, thinking, thinking.

While I am fumbling with gift cards or having a melt down in Walmart five minutes before closing time...
Originally Posted By yekcim Sara, can you give your brother a call and ask to go in on the gift together? He gets to pick, you get to share in his idea and all is well! Good luck, either way!
Originally Posted By Sara Tonin nah, I would never be able to face him again after admitting he picks better presents than I. There would be no living with him...
