Looking for ideas for brother in law.


My wish list is garage creeper, foldable pruning saw, wallet, wooden grill scraper, and barbecue turning hook.

I was just seeing if the collective OB could help if that's actually a desire.

I don't desire to share my SSN with the lurkers or bots that skim this site.

OB members... probably wouldn't give two ****s about having it.

replaced 3-4 lamps around the house with new ones that are set up like a hotel lamp, has a plug on the lamp, as well as 2 phone/ipad charging ports. the lamps can all be turned on remotely with new remote plugs

also added a few dimmer light switches that are remote controlled and also work from the iphone.

The correct question to ask would be, What do you do? Where I work is irrelevant.

In that case, I am the plant manager for a coal fired power plant. I am looking for an operations manager or project manager role. I am not open to relocation, willing to travel up to 75% and hold a BS and MS in GIS from TAMU with 15+ years in energy/power gen management.

Stuff to help me finish out my cabin would probably be at the top of my list. And the time to work on it, but since deer season is coming to a close in a month the time factor will be fixed to some degree.

No offense but you sound like a jackass. He was obviously trying to help.

I just want my family healthy. We've been hit hard with so many deaths at the holidays the last 6 to 8 years. If I could ask for anything it'd probably be some time fishing at the coast with my wife and kids on the boat.

I think it's just wording. Hoyt Ag is anything but a JA.
Good man imho. Would be an asset to anybody he worked for. Just saying.

Good health for my wife and family. And me somehow not to have back surgery. That would be my most perfect Christmas presents.

I'm pretty sure we are friends on LinkedIn, I've been seeing stuff pop up recently somewhat similar to that. I'll start sending you stuff

Are some things you BIL is interested in?

Need new golf balls? PRO V 1's
Likes hunting - get some wool t shirts
Fishing - I wrote this out but it's a difficult one
Cooking - new cast iron or seasonings, some Pat Le Frida meat
Pickleball - shoes, racket, balls, clothes

Gotta give us some idea on what he's interested in.

Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves.

Nothing. I don't really care much about "stuff". I get what I want, but can wait a really long time to get "stuff" that I "want", and if I don't get it, that's fine. I'd rather get presents for others and see them happy. Others happiness is more important to me than my happiness. I think the only thing I'd want ever is a job I liked, but I've got that now. Higher pay would be nice, but that's just material. I guess I have this mindset, because I grew up on severe poverty, and if we even got gifts for Christmas (Most Christmases we did not), it was something we needed like clothes, food, etc - not something we wanted.

As for things I'd like to do in the future - I'd like to travel more, buy my own land to hunt on one of these days, and start my taco trailer business within the next year (not likely to happen, but I'll keep saving up little bit by little bit). But, those are not "gift" type of things - more just things id like to do.
I know a lot about a little, and a little about a lot.

This thread got way off track. Try this:
Benchmade bailout
Fleece socks to wear under waders
Yucateco black label hot sauce
Talisker
See, something in every price range

Since the OP got derailed I will give a serious answer.

I buy every male I know one of three things every single year.

knife
ammo
tools

As a more specific example I bought the knives from https://cobratecknives.com/

I am buying my father in law a pressure washer this year. He borrowed mine two months ago and hasn't returned it. So I buy him one and get my old one back.

Just buy yourself one that's better than the one he borrowed, and let him keep the old one.

Lots of options, is there a use for the shirts or just because?
