Today's holiday gift guide [1] features gift ideas for the boys in your family with whom you had to share a bathroom growing up.
The complete series of Arrested Development [2] on DVD will most likely delight your brother while also providing you guys with something to laugh at together if you find that the holiday togetherness is getting to be a bit much.
I really like the Bourne movies, but the guys I know seem to like them even more. Come December 11, you can give your brother the gift of three movies' worth [3] of Jason Bourne eluding the authorities.
If your brother loves both music and video games, consider getting him Rock Band Special Edition [4] for his PlayStation or XBox360. The game comes with a guitar, microphone, and drums so he and his friends can play along with Metallica, Bon Jovi, and more. This would be especially good for a guy who's living in a college dorm or has enough roommates to form an impromptu band in the living room.
Before it was a movie directed by Sean Penn, Into the Wild [5] was a bestselling book by Jon Krakauer about the free-spirited Christopher McCandless and his dangerous journey into the Alaskan wilderness. Your brother may also be interested in another of Krakauer's well-received books, Into Thin Air [6].
If your brother is too young to have watched The Goonies [7] in its glory days, it's your responsibility to educate the young lad on all things Truffle Shuffle.
