Father’s Day fantasy gifts and cannon envy in a catalog world
Tony Kornheiser riffs on over the top Father’s Day ideas from a NASCAR race car to a poolside golf game, then pivots to a New Year’s cannon obsession. He notes the absurd price tags, the impracticalities, and a playful self awareness about aging, parenting, and gift culture. He closes by recalling a Maryland neighbor who fires a cannon each New Year’s Eve, illustrating how spectacle and risk color modern celebrations.
