What do you get for a friend

that you have already gotten everything for and you can't copy what he got you, meat (Coppa Roast).

They left out the best part, where when Donnie leaves, Lefty borrows $500 from him.

If you're asking about Christmas gifts I made a custom hiking stick for my bestie.

That is a really nice and thoughtful gift FB.

He collects and works on modern (E39 and newer) BMWs. Tools seem unthoughtful.

When he gets back from spending Christmas with his kids on the west coast, I am going to put new strings on his Gibson and Yamaha.

$100 gift card for Walmart. Unless you can think of something better - this is always a good option, IMHO.

Also, another $100 gift card to go with it - for a local grocery store that is considered a good one. Down here it's Publix, but I don't think you have them up there.

I'm not a "gift card person" per se, but when there's TWO of them...each for $100 for a very popular supplier - it takes on a whole new meaning.

I see HD has kegerators, maybe one of them for the shop or house, filled with a half keg of his favorite?

I don't think you could go wrong with one of those TikTok resin block Godzilla's terrorizing the world with massive fire breathing.

That thing looks furious. That furious-ness could be a metaphor for how intensely you perform your cerekote applications if it was a customer friend but we need clarification.

If it is a potential significant other it could represent the terror you would unleash on anyone trying to mess with the relationship.

A kite sounds pretty cool as well. Less explaining.

Budget is $50 to $100. He is more of a wine person than beer though

Yes, he used to have early cars and then got out of them into a 2001 996TT and then moved on to 2000+ BMWs

Are you in FL? Coming down to City after New Years for birthday celebrations. Can't wait to see Starry Night.

I have good friends. I'm doing the roast Sunday night for a dinner party. 6 hours at 250ºF convection ought to be perfect.
