Father’s Day will be upon us in just a few short weeks. No this is not hint, actually it’s a bold and forthright statement! You better come up with something good! Seriously though, this year I was asked to give an account of what I would like to receive for Father’s Day 2009.

• Music - I can’t get enough of it. I’m somewhat of record collector. I have been since I was a kid. I amass and consume music at a ridiculously quick rate. My tastes however tend to be pretty eclectic and esoteric however, so don’t presume to pick out the music for me. Let me do it. A iTunes or Amazon download gift card would be very much appreciated. See? I told you I was going to concentrate on the affordable!

• Headphones to listen to all that new music. I’ve been thinking for quite awhile that I could really use a pair of true audiophile headphones. Now my iPod earbuds that i currently use do the job, but I would really like something much more dynamic. They are really quite reasonable in price as well. One can find a very nice pair of premium headphones for well under

• USB Record Player. Not to beat the “I like music drum” overmuch, but this is something I’ve been wanting for a long time. I have a lot of vinyl albums. Unfortunately due to space limitations most live in our storage space, not the house proper. In any case, like most people these days I find it much more convenient to consume my music in the digital format. That being said, I own a lot of very cool records. I have fantasies of spending many a happy Saturday converting them to MP3 format. I need a USB record player to accomplish this. The prices on these units have drastically come down this past year. They are not expensive at all. Please family, if you are reading…help me live my dream.

• Beer. I really like beer. No I’m not suggesting that my family arrive home with a six pack “Here you go Daddy! Have fun!” No I’m actually thinking of a Beer Club were I receive a new selection every month that I wouldn’t normally run across. I personally am very fond of Belgian Trappist ales, in case anyone is paying attention.

• LCD TV. Ok this a little bit extravagent, but not really. The prices on flat screen television have really fallen. We don’t need the biggest one on the block, a modest size will do. Oh and if I attach it to the wall, think of all the space this will free up! Actually when I think about it, this isn’t so much a gift for me, but for the whole family! Yes I know, I am the most selfless of souls.

• The Roku Digital Video Player. Noticing a theme here? Yes I enjoy gadgets and media, so sue me. But really, who doesn’t enjoy movies? With the Roku Digital Video Player dad will have access 40,000 + choices on demand. No need to visit the video store this Father’s Day. You’ll have the Amazon on Demand library and the Netflix library at your disposal.

• A weekend getaway, would be really nice. If there is one thing I like more than playing with my toys at home, it’s getting away from home for a little bit. I’m not speaking of an extravagant two week tour across the continent. No just a few days away and out of town, that would be really nice. I

• No ties. Yes anything other than a tie would be just fine.
