White collar pops: Is your dad trying to leap through the corporate ladder? Then, make sure to pick him up a copy How to Sellout for Dummies by Charlie Sheen. In it, the half-Spanish actor expounds on a career of denying his Latiness, dating models, paying for sex with no jail time and falling ass backwards into good jobs. Once he finishes the 10-page book, he'll be on the fast track to success.

I'm still down pops: If your dad still rocks torn jeans or Nike dunks then he's probably young at heart AKA un viejo rabo verde. When he's not hitting on your college amigas, take him out for a night on the town. Hit up a Shakira concert and the after party. Even though he'll be the creepiest guy in the club at least your friends will get free drinks all night...and thanks to them your dad won't need his little blue pills for mom that night.

Sports fanatic pops: At this point some Lakers-Celtics tickets are a pipe dream but you can always go to eBay and buy him some exclusive memorabilia. The perfect pick being an autographed Diego Maradona jersey, which oddly enough is the same shirt he wore when he sniffed Peruvian snow off a midget's butt. For a nominal fee or a warm meal, Diego will spend the day with your dad and tell him why the Brits suck and make his second Che Guevara tattoo talk. Don't ask where it's located.

Hip-hop pops: If your dad is an "old head" hip-hopper (think LL Cool J, Russell Simmons) then you better pick up Public Enemy's greatest hits rather than Soulja Boy's one hit. Throw in a velour sweat suit and a pair of Adidas with fat laces and he'll be breakin' like it was 1984. To add to his nostalgia buy him the three DVDs that will make him bust out his Lasonic boomin' system--Style Wars, Wild Style and Beat Street. Word!

Blue collar pops: The remote control and the couch-it's the best gift for a dad who uses elbow grease to put you through college. No joke here. If your father is a plumber, waiter, butcher, taxi driver or any other job that doesn't require typing then he needs to relax and watch the boob tube. So what if he's glued to Sabado Gigante. PS: He could give two s**ts about Don Francisco it's about the scenery...(wink)!

Disclaimer: This is all fun but seriously get your dad a good gift instead of a polka-dot tie.
