My husband talks on the phone A LOT.
His phone is *always* ringing. Partly because he’s a popular, likable kind of guy. And partly because he makes an effort to stay in touch with other people so people are often returning HIS phone calls.
He also makes tons of calls for business purposes – in the office, at home, and on the road.
I, on the other hand, tend to shy away from the phone. I’d much rather text or e-mail or meet up with you for coffee.
The truth is that it’s hard to concentrate on the phone, while I’m holding a baby, making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and checking my e-mail…not to mention, I’m a tad bit distracted by the squeals and screeches of delight and/or devastation that manage to escape my two-year-old’s mouth.
Because my husband uses the phone a lot, a bluetooth headset is a handy gadget for him to have around.
He has tried several bluetooth headsets and has been rather unimpressed with all of them. They all have that echo-y quality that makes the person on the other end say, “Am I on speaker phone?“
But not the new Voyager PRO ($99.99) by Plantronics.
It has exceptional sound quality – for crisp, clear, undistracted conversations. The batteries also last quite a long time. It’s comfortable and professional – an excellent choice for any dad who is constantly making “connections” with the world around him.
My husband uses his PRO every single day and has an overall positive impression of it. In fact, he’s wearing it right now.
YOUR TURN: Just out of curiosity, who talks more on the phone…you or your husband? Do you prefer talking on the phone, texting, e-mailing, or in-person meetings?

Bass Pro is a true “man’s man” kind of store. If your dad has even the slightest fascination with the outdoors, he’ll find something of interest there.
Bigger isn’t always better.
My husband says he likes the Freestyle because it’s strong enough to cut through a barbed wire fence, yet its compact and light enough to carry when he’s out in the “field.”
My husband is the GRILL GUY.

When you think of headlamps, you probably think 
There are a lot of excellent gift options there to consider, but today I’d like to bring the TIKKA XP to your attention. Why? Because it’s the perfect gift for ANY GUY. He doesn’t have to be a world-class athlete to appreciate this handy headlamp. It’s equally well-suited for outdoor expeditions or tinkering around in the garage..and, at under $50, it’s a real “steal.”
Listening to the radio is SO 1999.
