Need gift ideas for a co-worker

[shuttleboi]

I need to get a gift for a former co-worker who helped me out a lot while I was looking for a job last year. I owe this guy big-time. Ideas? I would prefer something from Amazon.com, maybe a book?

Edit: He is a manager and about 45 years old.

if you are (both) geeky, then thinkgeek is the place

another geek gift (but a good one) is the book by Cliff Stoll (sic?) THe Cookoo's egg

It's a non-gender specific gift - wine and food? How is that girly?

lol no. I wish I quoted the spammer (I got a stern finger-wagging recently about quoting an obvious spammer...though it was different). He said something like "Can someone help me minion my wife? etc...something something."

maybe highland recalls, but he's a bit confused these days, at his age.

Close enough...on both counts.

Oh ok, rofl. I actually laughed when I read what he said, and thought about your reply, that I spit out some of the ice cream I'm eating. Thankfully this restaurant is empty (except for staff lol). Oh boy.
