Sometimes when I meet the girls mother, I see her in her mothers face but 25 years later, and I start to lose interest...it can be scary.

bottle of wine not a bad idea...just make sure they aren't anti-alcohol. that could backfire.

I always have the A-game going...how do you think i snagged this one.

I know her father is retired and golfs and smokes like a fish. Only drink Candian Club and Heinkein.

Mom likes wine, about all i know.

The folks live on long island, so it will be quite a treat for this small town guy.

Maybe you should offer to take them out to a nice dinner. There are some great restaurants on Long Island.

I am leaning towards bringing nothing

Maybe offer the ole man a round of golf in exchange for some lessons as i hit in the 90-100 range and he is a 70's golfer.

the last thing he is going to want to do is spend 5 hours helping you find your ball in the woods...

I do think it is customery to bring something....even gaylord focker brought the parents something, that big ass flower pot....

I would like it to be something that favors the father over the mother though, in other words something that he would like, so that rules out the wine.
