you buy him either a card that says "you make too much money" or you buy him a knowledgeable wife who actually cares about the budget.

Gift Cards.  I'd love to get gift cards.  This time of year when DVDs go on sale I tend to buy them.  But I put DVDs on my christmas list.  So I'd rather get a gift card to get the DVDs I want when I want.

Find out what type of hand gun he has and get him a couple high capacity magazines for it.

Ammo is also good, but a magazine really shows you care. 

You can never have to many hi-cap magazines.

Give him an adventure.

Take his wallet, mobile phone and pants. Abandon him 200km's from home with nothing but a pair of bongo drums. Money just can't buy experiences like these. (Keep any cash in his wallet, this should cover your expenses.)

Obviously you've got to get him something non-material.  Donate to his charity of choice in his name, that sort of thing.

Buy a bunch of phone cards for soldiers in his name.  Donate some money to the Salvation Army in his name.  Sponsor a bunch of kids in a Christmas wish list charity.  This isn't that hard.  If he already has everything he clearly doesn't need whatever you can give him.

I'm not positive, but I THINK AT&T is making this possible - I thought I heard somewhere that they're like the only ones providing or able to provide service to the troops in their camps.

If he buys everything he wants, simply buy him something he doesn't want, like a tie that looks like a fish, one of those inflatable couches, or a case of scratch-n-sniff stickers.

Yes, there absolutely freakin' IS something wrong with it.  It's called pedophilia.

Anyway, there are a LOT of charities that buy the cards and send them directly to soldiers.  Don't bother with the big company "we skim 50% off the top" garbage.

There is also a South Park episode that explains what NAMBLA is. I think it's season 1 or 2. Watch that and you'll get a good idea.
