He's done everything but I haven't asked. 

Bought a handmade set of Steak knives and forks from Argentina and gave them to him. Turned out to be a big hit. peace_5

Hey "Richard" head, you might need a casket sooner than the rest of us fossils thou I do have more than 1 foot already in the grave. 

BTW - fly tying? I fish and cant believe this is the answer. If he already fly fishes hes got it. If not, wasted stupid present. Really? Is he dead? Sorry, just the truth. Whats next, a backgammon set? Wait till u "whippersnappers" get older. Go with the Bucket List guy. The wife/gf idea is awesome might might have repercussions later. 
A stripper who shows up at the front door never gets old no matter how old you get. 10, 17, 27 1/2, 60, 140 years old. The stripper will always make you happy. My birthday is coming up, anyone want to buy me a present?

You're clearly an ol' hornball that isn't getting much lovin'. I'm 35 and i'd rather get the fly tying book, or any book for that matter. A bottle of scotch wouldn't miss the mark either but I'd be pissed if a stripper showed up to my door. If you wanna say you're taking me out for drinks and we end up at a strip club, that's different. I just don't need some skank showing up to dinner.

Hey, NOBODY is older than I am, sport.  I mean, I'm old enough to be carbon dated.  I could go at any minute with my sagging health.   BUT....you gotta have a sense of humor about these morbid things.

I like fishing, and up here in the winter it helps us think of spring in some secluded brook. Building things such as Flies takes time it is meticulous patience to construct and when it’s finished it something meaningful and useful....

seriously two things you can not trust when you turn 60 farts or young women both will leave you in a sh!tty situation. What you want the old boy to be child support till he is near 80.....

Two tickets to Vegas for you and him. A great meal at Rao's in Vegas and then a night of ? you fill in the blank. I would only do this for a very close friend and my blank would be gambling and then a few drinks a good night sleep followed by the breakfast buffet at the Aria (but many good spots, also Hash House a Go Go).
