A reporter recently contacted me wanting to hear "what you think are the more appropriate Father's Day gift ideas for the modern-day Dad."

Many stores still hawk ties, golf clubs, tools to putter in the workshop with, and other gifts that reflect the Ward Cleaver image of a Dad who's only home for dinner and spends weekends mowing the lawn or playing golf.

What would you like for Fathers' Day?

relaxation

Of course I want to spend the day itself with my family but sleeping in and a gift certificate for a massage sounds pretty good.

hmmm

What I'd really like is unprintable, so I'll just say a Netbook.

On a more serious note, I'd say a large block of free time is more valuable than gold to me these days.
