DEAR OLD DAD: Thank Dad for all those steaks on the grill, changed tires and overall general handiness (so what if you had to call an actual electrician afterward?) with a little something for every price from Brookstone. For the dad who’s a gadget guy, the Flashlight Multi-Tool ($12.50) uses a Swiss army knife mentality for gizmos like a flashlight, pliers, knife, etc., all stashed in a pocket-friendly case. Or, for the dad who’s all about his home movies, the Cinemen Swivel Projector ($299.95) makes a movie screen out of just about anything. Dads who think themselves a modern-day James Bond will love the Video Spy Pen ($99.95), which writes and records. And, for the dad who considers himself a top chef, the Grill Alert Talking Remote Thermometer ($69.95) gives him that extra insurance his grillings are good to go. GET IT: Brookstone Aventura, 19575 Biscayne Blvd., Space #519, Aventura; 305.935.2177.
