Bling out the barbecue. The man that has everything doesn’t have this. This is a great gift for the guy that loves to trick out his ride. Spinners on the car, spinner on the spatula; an obvious transition. Click here for more information

Ever gotten a little blue box? In the world of women, I hear that a gift from Tiffany’s is about as good as it gets. You know they have stuff for men also. My favorite is this silver Dealer button. Now, this is probably only appropriate if your guy is REALLY into poker and plays in some serious games. Otherwise, it could be a display or collectors piece. I know that some men collect poker chips and keep one from every casino they’ve been to. At 1.5” in diameter, this would work right into that collection. Click here for more information

Sometimes making a decision is no more than sticking a quarter in the slot and seeing what comes up. If this describes your man, then this gift is for him. The Executive Decision Maker is one of the more unique items of this type that I’ve seen. Pull the crank and watch the wheel spin. Take the advice or not, it’s sure to be a fun piece for his office space. Click here for more information

More unique gifts for men over at The Round Table; the personalized pub signs, beer steins, humidors, and coasters continue to be popular items. With Father’s Day right around the corner, I’m sure even more of these will head out the door.

Add another image to the collection. For all the fisher Dad’s out there the personalized bait and tackle shop image will be right up his alley. Like the other images, this can be put on a pub sign, beer stein, coaster, or humidor. His name, or nick name, will be proudly displayed front and center. Click here to see all designs available.

There is a relatively large lake near where I live. There is a small, two lane road that literally goes right through it. My daily driving takes me right over that road. I guess this is quite a fishing spot, because there are always people out there. Parked along the side of the road, there is someone there almost every hour of the day, and every single day of the year. I saw someone there on Christmas Day! Sometimes I see work trucks and vans, even school busses, out there. I’ve often wondered if the employers know where these people are. I guess they hide their fishing rod somewhere in the truck. Or, maybe they’ve got one of these.

Not sure how well this thing actually works, but it claims to. Expands to 36”, it “offers all the strength, sensitivity and flexibility of a conventional rod”. Plus it collapses down to 8”. That’ll fit in the glove box. He’ll have to try it out himself to be sure, but I thought it’d be an interesting Father’s Day gift. Click here for more information

Now this is what I call a party. From St. Francis Vineyards in Sonoma County, The Classic Poker Night Box has everything you need for an impromptu poker night, or a beautiful gift. Includes 150 chips, two decks of cards (all with St. Francis logos), and two trendy Riedel O stem less wine glasses. Also includes a bottle of 2002 St. Francis Sonoma County Merlot and a bottle of 2003 St. Francis Sonoma County Syrah. All packaged in an elegant black lacquer box, this is quite an elegant gift for Dad, Grandpa, or Uncle Steve. Click here for more information

Yeah, I chew. And? It’s one of those habits I’ve never been able to shake. You know, once you start. Actually, I’m a lot better now that I’ve gotten older. When I was a kid, it was like non-stop. Middle school might have been the worst. What? No, fingernails. What were you thinking?

So anyway, here is the next thing in the Swiss army knife family. This little guy has a fingernail clipper built right in. And it’s a surprisingly good quality tool at that. Amazing what they can do. I keep one of these on my keychain. It’s a lot easier not to bite your fingernails when you’ve got the proper tool with you to take care of any rough spots (or whatever).

My wife and I went to Mexico for our honeymoon several years ago. We saw all kinds of cool things. We climbed the Mayan pyramids and more. Truly a memorable trip. When we got back, I noticed something about our pictures; we didn’t have a single one with both of us pictured. So it could have been anyone on that trip.

I can see two reasons for this. Obviously, we didn’t know the language, so communication was tough. But also, we simply don’t like to be a burden to other people. So we kind of feel bad asking some stranger to stop what they are doing and take a picture of us. And you know when you try to do it yourself, the pictures are always too close up; never look good.

Here is an interesting solution to this problem. The Quickpod Pro Handheld Tripod lets you take perfect photos, with you in them! Just use your camera’s timer function and shoot away. Also useful for taking pictures over crowds or in awkward places. Weighs only 3.5 ounces and extends out 18.5”. Pair it with the grillapod and your set for almost any photo situation.

OK, another new thing I’m doing. It’s called a blog carnival. Basically, I’ve invited other bloggers to write about men’s gifts so we can get more perspective on the subject from others. I had a short deadline for the first one, so I only got one submission, but hopefully this’ll grow in the future. Be sure to check out Kevin’s post below.
