If you’re anything like us you just might wait to the last minute before buying gifts. And we’re not just talking about the holidays here. We mean birthdays, Father’s Day, all that stuff. So what do you do? You hit up the local Target, Wal-Mart, or Home Depot and do the olympic speed walk through the … Continue Reading
I’m kind of a gadget hoarder. This includes shavers because I definitely have more than a guy with barely any hair needs. I know why I ended up with all these shavers in the linen closet. It’s because I buy one and think it’s going to work great and after a while it stops performing … Continue Reading
This gift guide is part gadgety, part stuff that works well, and part cool stuff we like. But if the person you’re buying the gift for is anything like us, they’ll love one of these things. Or at least like the thought of it enough to feel bad for returning it. Let’s do it. Philips … Continue Reading
We review the Philips Norelco Bodygroom. I said it somewhere else here on dadand.com that my typical approach to grooming has been “minimalist…actually, borderline survivalist.” Well, I was talking about smells in that post but now I’m talkin’ hair. You know, as you get older…the stuff that keeps showing up in every place except for … Continue Reading
Me and Marty have been friends for like 35 years. In that time we’ve probably created our own little hole in the ozone over Orlando. We’re junkies for anything gas-powered. Go-carts, motorcycles, 3-wheelers, scooters, cars, lawnmowers, weed-whackers, you name it, we’ve beaten on it. Another thing we know is lawn equipment. We’ve been using lawn … Continue Reading
Ahhh…another list of Holiday gifts. Gifts for Dad. For Mom. For nerds and punk rockers. I think this is the last holiday gift one. And not a single tool on this one, unless you count the guy wearing the backpack we suggest below. Dove Men+Care I just spoke the gospel of Dove Men+Care in my … Continue Reading
Well, not only for dad. I think plenty of moms would love this stuff too. Or people with big stockings. Here’s a smattering of stuff you could put next to the stocking if not in it. Some new and cool tools. Some ol’ faithful friends. An unofficial official Christmas tool guide if you will… Either … Continue Reading
You know Dadand likes tools. And stuff that goes with tools. The other day, I stopped at a home center that I don’t often visit. I was price checking some patio doors. And I decided to browse the tool section to compare their pricing to my usual home center. (Note: if a certain home center … Continue Reading
You don’t have Skycraft, but you wish you did. Do you need a toggle switch with one of those red safety covers like they use when they launch rockets? Or how about an actual surplus rocket? You need Skycraft Parts & Surplus. I’ve been in Orlando for almost 35 years, and I think this place … Continue Reading
A lot of the stuff I carry around as a dude and a dad is too small to be classified as a “real gift” so I put together a little list of gifts (in no particular order) that can be given as multiple small gifts rather than one large gift. 1.
