What should I get my brother for his graduation?

My oldest brother is graduating from high school in a few weeks and I want to get him something. Something less then $50.
I really haven't the faintest idea of what to get him. I mean, he's my brother but I'm not sure what he would like. He's sort of a conservative Christian guy, so I'll respect that, but I would like to get him something that will make him think. I was even thinking about getting him the movie "Waking Life."
Suggestions?

I've fantasized about presenting him with some sort of drug like weed or shrooms, but that's sort of out of the question at the point in time. He'd probably report me to the police. I love my brother, but he is socially brainwashed.

Well...he works out alot. He's pretty musculer and huge and he drinks lots of stuff to help him buff out more. Besides that he watches TV, plays video games and hangs out with girls and other guys like him.
That's really it. I know he hates reading. I'm pretty sure that whatever I give him he won't appreciate, but I have to try.

Well if you want him to appreciate what you give him, cater to what he likes.
Gift certificates are a little impersonal but work when you have no idea at all. Clothing is a good one, video games. Stick with little consumer toys

Is it from high school? I would give him money, he'll be needing plenty of it unless your family is well off. That is of course assuming he's going to college.
I know it's lame but that is what I needed when I graduated.

Maybe get him a wrist watch. It signifies moving along with time or something of that sort.

i love getting gift cards to best buy...is that nationwide, i think so. But i love getting gift cards to there cause there is so much to get. But a gift card to store he likes is good, or just some cash would be cool. I would say buy him a little pot but if he's not the type of person to do that, don't.
