What do you get the man who has everything and can afford whatever he doesn't have but wants?

I need a B-Day gift for my B-i-L and I am COMPLETELY out of ideas.

He's been losing weight recently so I don't really know his clothing size and I don't want to buy anything without him trying it on.

He doesn't really read except for certain magazines and those my sister always renews for him as a Christmas gift every year so he's current on those.

As far as I know he doesn't watch a lot of TV nor listen to a lot of music.

With the weight loss thing I'm reluctant to get a restaurant gift card.

The only thing my sister mentioned was some DVD on John the Baptist that apparently they saw at church but she doesn't know anything about it except that it was "really powerful" and that in one scene Jesus kept repeating "I am telling you..." Yeah, my sister is Queen of the Vague. I've done some internet searching but I can't find any recent videos on John the Baptist that aren't kids' DVD's.

The only other thing is that my B-i-L got a promotion in his job recently which now requires him to do a LOT of traveling (a LOT) so for any of you frequent travelers out there is there something that you've found you just can't live without?

I'm open to suggestions because the man has hit the wall of my shopping ability (yeah, for a chick I'm pretty epic fail on shopping talent).

This could be the John the Baptist movie you mean. I looked up several and most of them are very old, so this seems the likely contender as it is from 2003.

Thanks Weet, that could be it. I could see her getting the Gospel and John and John the Baptist mixed up.

I'll run it past her and see if it sounds familiar to her.
