Three Cheers

2008 Father’s Day Gift Guide

He’s your dad. Your husband. Your brother. He’s a golf-playing, sharp-shooting, perpetually poor-dressed, hi-def addict. He’s a lover and a fighter and would pull an all-nighter for you any day of the week. He’s your bud. And he deserves a thank-you.

Dude.
Poppa’s got a brand new belly. Help him shed his extra layers and reduce his carbon footprint with a swanky Velorbis ride (and a sidecar for good measure). Speaking of rides, his car obsession is out of control. Quell it with a Chicago Exotic Car Tour. For four hours, he’ll channel Bueller (Bueller?) in a Lamborghini Gallardo, Bentley Flying Spur, Aston Martin DB9 Volante, Ferrari F430, and Porsche 911 S Cabriolet. And be home in time for dinner.

Dude!
He lives on the wild side. Play into his boyhood fantasies with The Dangerous Book for Boys, a guidebook including pertinent how-tos (tanning hides, tying slip knots) that only a true man can appreciate. If he’s not a literary man, he’s at least a Man Man. With a copy of their new CD on his nano, he’ll be the hippest dad on the block.

Dude …
He’s a metrosexual, and he’s not afraid to admit it. Get him the Metro Guise Package from GuiseChic, which includes a haircut, shave, and manicure. To balance out the vanity, buy him some home-brewed pizza beer. We’re not kidding: The Chicago creators steep margarita pizza like a tea bag, filter the essence, boil it, and voila! Get it at Binny’s.

Happy Father’s Day, Dude.
