Father's Day: The Ultimate Challenge

It's a challenge I face this time every year.
What to get my dad for Father's Day?

My dad has got to be the hardest person in the world to buy for, and I'm not exaggerating. Just ask my siblings. They'll tell you.

Here are a few examples:
All of the clothes we've given dad over the last FOUR DECADES still have their store tags attached. The clothes remain in their gift boxes-- stacked up in his closet.
The keychain I gave him in 1975-- it's still in the box.
The watch I bought in 1980-- still in its box.
A Coach wallet in 1990-- in the box. He's still carrying a wallet from 1965.
A GPS device-- in the box.
A cellphone-- you guessed it. (you get the idea)

My sister, brother, and I know whatever we buy dad-- it'll just sit in his closet or in a drawer FOREVER.
Is it just OUR father or are there lots of father's like this?
Just wondering?
