Using the Internet as my Personal Shopper

[anastasiav]

Josh's birthday is in one week. He will give me no hints as to what he would like as a gift. (Actually, he says "you got me a TV" which I did, but that's not his birthday gift.)

Any thoughts on cool things out in the universe that he would appreciate?

If you don't know him well, he:
- is a Knight and is interested in Medieval things and generally anything involving swords
- enjoys the fiction of George R R Martin and Katherine Kurtz
- enjoys RPGs, and is involved in a White Wolf/Werewolf LARP right now
- just got a new blue ray player
- doesn't play video games
- is the primary cook in our house

Suggestions?

As a guiding principal, I'm trying to focus more on giving "experiences" rather than "things" as gifts. Things accumulate, take up space, and are often just in the way.

Things like:

A trip (museum?)
A cooking class (if that's his bent)
A break from something he dislikes or a chance to do something he really enjoys.

Just a different spin.

Its a good spin.
