What should I get my dad for Christmas?

Question

i know this is painfully late, but i owe my dad something nice (he got me a laptop last year). 
he's a nerdy guy- he loves biking, crossword puzzles, monty python, camping, jazz, and cooking, and he used to be a math teacher. he's not at all into fancy little things like ties or cheeses or wine. he has all the tools he will ever need. also, i'm on a pretty tight budget. please don't say "ask him"- i have, and if he had given me a reasonable answer, i wouldn't be here.
