More gift suggestions, please

Does one of his local sports teams offer a "fantasy camp"? You could check their webpages to find out. It's probably expensive, but that doesn't sound like a problem for you guys. Could be something to look into. I think it's a long weekend hanging out with them playing basketball, football, baseball or hockey or whatever. (scratching, belching and far... well you get the idea)

The more I read about the PT husbands, the more I realize just how different my Bobcat is. He won't touch a computer. Doesn't know what a PSP is. Wouldn't be caught dead wearing jewelry or cologne. You know what his favorite gift EVER was? Last year I got him a flashlight that doesn't need batteries. It has a handle on it that you wind up for about 3 minutes and that powers the flashlight for a few hours. Oh, it also came with an attachment that you could plug into your cell phone. That way if your cell phone was dead and you weren't near electricity (very possible if you live in Alaska), you could plug it into the flashlight and wind it some more to recharge those batteries. Bobcat promptly threw the attachment away because he refuses to have a cell phone.

He's different, I tell you!

KuHio , that's the nice thing about men they are different . Mine is more of an artist and they think differently. He (as we say it is in touch with his feminae side) He can actually understand the way I'm thinking, messed up by menopause or not! He however is the biggest gadget guy I have ever known. To move last spring our son and I had 3 loads in his little dodge dakota (minus furnture) hubby spent 7 days packing and hauling his stuff in his suburban. He is also a junkie(as we call collectors of stuff really not useful).
It's a good thing for the varity of men too cause look at how we are all so different.
I'm glad mine isn't in to the sports (basket ball only and if it's the magic playing we are in business with the owners) He does like to watch the olympics with me. But could do with out them.
Now my son in law can't miss Nascar he is even going with out a phone in order to have sattilte tv to watch it. Drives my daughter nuts shes used to men being like dad.
Well way off topic but every one be glad for the differnetces .

What an excellent idea! I'll look into that.

Thanks, Lisa!

As far as them being different, yes, very different. My hubby is into the gadgets, sports, cologne and nice clothes but can't work a power tool to save his life. All the power tools we own are mine!
