LoggerHead Bionic Wrench

The 8-inch Bionic Wrench
is unlike any wrench you’ve ever seen before. In fact, it looks and works more like pliers than a
wrench. This cleverly designed tool has a pair of spring-loaded handles and a circular head that’s
fitted with six hardened steel jaws. As you squeeze the handles, all six jaws slide toward the
center and lock onto the head of the nut or bolt. This unique mechanism allows the Bionic Wrench to
grip hexagonal, square and even rounded fasteners.

Tesla Roadster

Every dad has to get away from it all once in a while, but only a select few
dads will have the luxury of getting away at nearly 130mph (in near-total silence, no less). True,
the lawn may not get mowed and the leaky faucet may not get fixed while he’s cruising the
countryside in the all-electric Tesla Roadster, but he will be doing his little part to save the
environment and reduce dependence on crude oil.

 

Coleco Sonic Handheld

Even if all these
“next-gen” consoles are too confusing for dear old dad, surely he can get down with a single D-pad
and two measly buttons. The Coleco Sonic Handheld offers up 20 old-school Sega games that anyone can
master, and at only $50, it’s a cheap way to distract him from telling his boring stories at yet
another family event.

PS 3
As DVD playback made the PlayStation 2 more than just a game
machine, hefty multi-media features make the Sony PlayStation 3 an even more versatile home
entertainment machine. Features such as video chat, Internet access, digital photo viewing, and
digital audio and video will likely make it the central component of your media set-up. Still, it is
first and foremost a game console–a powerful one at that.

Philips Pronto
TSU9600

We know it’s our third universal remote, but we know dads love their
home theaters, and if it takes dad 15 frickin’ minutes to configure his AV setup to play a DVD, and
another 15 to get it back to watching TiVo, it’s about time for some serious remote consolidation.
Philips’ Pronto TSU9600 pretty much sits atop the hill, featuring far-out goodies (for a remote,
anyway) like WiFi, a 3.7-inch touch screen with a stylus, home automation integration, and media
server control.

Sony Ericsson MBW-100

Every guy secretly wants to lead the James
Bond lifestyle, and while it’s probably not a good idea to retrofit his BMW with surface-to-air
missles, you can still hook him up with a high-tech watch. Sony Ericsson’s MBW-100 Bluetooth model
should fit the bill: it’ll help him impress his buddies every time a call comes in, and it looks way
snazzier than past attempts at merging wrist with CallerID.

Great Dad Talks
Great Dad Talks

Great Dad Talks is a series of conversations with experts on all aspects of the family adventure. With the perspective that “dads don’t always think like moms,” our mission is to support dad voices and our slightly different approaches to parenting. We’ll try to find solutions to every day challenges like getting kids off the couch and making STEM classes available for both boys and girls. But we’ll also tackle bigger issues when they come. The one main theme will be to support dads in the most important role of their lives that of being a great dad.
