I tried out the phone and it doesn't seem to fit my personality. So if someone wants this phone, give me a shout and offer a price. Cheers, Paul

Oy vey. My partner and I arrived home from Puerto Rico the weekend before Valentine's day. We had great plans in Puerto to go hiking, go swimming and go scuba-diving. Unfortunately both of us were down and out with the flu. So, no swimming, no hiking, no anything. It was a particularly bad flu case for both of us. We were really bummed out about our vacation.

On the night before Valentine's day, I gave Joseph some nyquil and I lied to him that I already took my nyquil. I waited 20 minutes and he was out cold sleeping.

I went to the kitchen and I melted some dark chocolate and dipped those menthol Halls cough drops. When I was done, I took some nyquil and went to bed.

The next morning, I gave him a Valentine's day card with a DVD with Puerto Rican rainforest sounds (sounds of birds, water streams and croaking of coqui frogs) and chocolate-dipped Halls cough drops.

I went to work for the day and when I got back, he gave me a card and made fabulous homemade chicken soup.

Not the best Valentine's but it was not bad either for both of us. The following weekend, we recovered hale and healthy.

I am using Sidekick II -- an oldie but goodie. It has calendar, a (slow) browser, AIM, and other usual applications. You can download games, and other productivity applications for it at a small price for each download. I wanted to switch to Nokia E61i but I am so used to using the Sidekick's spacious thumb keyboard. Anyone want the Nokia E61i?
