My daughter gave this to me for Father's day, a neat looking pocket watch, and a metal balisong comb from Benchmade :)

Very keen looking, she's quite artistic and it shows in her gifts...

I got a call from my son and a card from my Mastiff (I suspect she may have had help in getting the card and signing it).

As I look back over my first 50 years, I see a lot of things that I am not happy about, or didn't work out the way that I had hoped personally and professionally. But being a dad and having my son grow into a respectful, well liked, good young man who works hard and earns a decent living doing something that he enjoys (computer programming) makes all those other trifling regrets fade into the background.
 
Thanks guys, it's not an expensive edition, but it does work, which I think surprised her! :)

And Shann, yep, that's good to hear! Many things I wish I had the chance to do over again differently, but in the end, love where I'm at now ;)
