The 2009 Guy Gift Guide

It's that time of year again.  Time to start the guessing games, the mind-reading, the not-so-subtle questions that can only mean one thing: Christmas is coming and there's a GUY on your shopping list.  Not to fear, dear.  The GSC (that's me) has compiled a visual list to assist.  This guide is meant to inspire rather than require (some of this gear might not be available in the USA) so use this to get a feel for what's out there and then get creative and shop around.  The important thing is, START NOW!
