Blow Up Bouncers
I have no idea what to get my boyfriend for Christmas....?
We've been together for 4 years and he has pretty much everything he needs. With his kids, I'm planning on making a scrapbook with them from all of us but I still need to think of something from just me.
I don't want to do the typical cologne or something I just pick up at a department store.
How do I describe him...he likes football, scary and screwed up movies, he used to be a bouncer at a night club that he quit for a shirt and tie desk job after getting full custody of his kids and now his days consist of TreeHouse and Family channel which he thinks is awesome but I know he would like a night out away from the house or something "grown up" to do or use around the house.
I just thought of this...he's trying to loose weight too. What about a punching bag? I'm sure he'd like that and remind him of his days at the bar....
Please suggest some things and let me know how much a decent punching bag is that he won't blow apart...
A million thanks!!
some sort of exercise equipment might be a good idea, as you have already hinted to via the punching bag. guys are so hard to buy for...mine is horrible. so i feel your plight...what to get the guy that has everything? well, you can get gift certificates of all sorts of things: fav restaurant, oil changes, music stores, etc. As far as doing something grown-up, how about tickets to go somewhere? I don't know where you live or what your means are, but how about like to a casino for the weekend (gift part could be hotel room and arranged babysitter) or tickets to a show of some sort (not necessarily to a movie, but movie passes are a good idea, too.) When was the last time you two went to go see a concert together? Also, if he has mentioned he wants to work out...instead of buying him the punching bag, how about a membership to a gym? This way, his work out time is "his" time, not to be interupted at home and he might meet some new friends, too. more romantic, get him a few little things for under the tree, and then when the kids aren't around he can open a gift consisting of things for the two of you, body lotions, massage oils, etc....whatever you want to put in the gift box. This is an idea that can be incorporated with a hotel night or weekend away from the kids, too. I'm sure there are more ideas, but hopefully that will get you started on trying to figure out what to get him. Good luck

Blow $8.39 Rated: RSynopsis: Based on Bruce Porter's biography of the same name, Blow tells the story of real-life drug kingpin George Jung (Johnny Depp), a working-class kid from New England who turned America on to the magic powder that made disco come alive. Echoing the trajectory of a cocaine high, the sunny euphoria of Jung's early days in the 1960s selling pot on Southern California beaches gives way to the manic, teeth-grinding frenzy of his big-scale coke smuggling during the 1970s, when he hooked up with Columbian Pablo Escobar's powerful Medellin cartel. By the mid-'80s, as arrests and betrayals send Jung's billion-dollar empire crashing down, his life becomes one long cocaine hangover. Breezily told, Blow dispenses with major chunks of story through rapid-fire, Goodfellas-like montages as Jung narrates in voice-over; much of the fun comes from checking out Depp's ever-changing array of period costumes and hairdos as the movie hurtles through the decades. Director Ted Demme slows the action down for Jung's periodic visits with his loving but ineffectual father (Ray Liotta) and his shrewish mother (Rachel Griffiths), who salivates over her son's ill-gotten gains, then later turns him in to the police. These scenes with the parents are meant to provide the key to Jung's character: In his marriage to Mirtha -- a Columbian bombshell (Penelope Cruz) who quickly goes from fantasy babe to coke-snorting, money-grubbing harridan -- we witness the reenactment of his family history. But it's never clear how Jung, who seems neither ruthless nor particularly smart, rises so high in a trade dominated by vicious, machine gun-toting drug lords. It's a testimony to Depp's immense appeal as a performer -- his ability to undercut his breathtaking good looks with a self-effacing sweetness -- that he manages to make us care about a character that we never really get a handle on. Blow hammers home its point that crime doesn't pay, but by the end we have so much sympathy for Depp that we almost wish that it did. Kryssa SchemmerlingFollowing the life of cocaine-trafficking pioneer George Jung in a way that recalls Martin Scorsese's Casino, Blow recounts the man's days from his 1950s childhood in Boston to his downfall in the 1980s. George (played by Johnny Depp) begins his life as the son of Fred (Ray Liotta), an earnest breadwinner, and Ermine (Rachel Griffiths), who frequently walks out on them in pursuit of a more fulfilling life. When George moves west to California in the late '60s, accompanied by best pal Tuna (Ethan Suplee), he becomes an entrepreneur in the marijuana business, which soon spreads to the East Coast as well, with girlfriend Barbara (Franka Potente) smuggling the product during her stewardess shifts. George is arrested in 1972 -- at which time Barbara dies of cancer -- but George finds a new ally in Diego (Jordi Molla), who proposes the idea that he become the American conduit for Colombian kingpin Pablo Escobar (Cliff Curtis). George flourishes in t |
