Vosges chocolate is divine
If you are a chocolate person you must try Vosges. The flavors are other-worldly and the quality so high that a little goes a long way.
This pic is of their groove collection complete with soundtrack. For those of you who like the idea of white chocolate but always find the
taste too plasticy, try some Vosges style; I've never tasted anything like it.

Pairing Jawbone with G4 PowerBook
When considering the Jawbone purchase I found a lot of people complaining that they couldn't get it to work with their "older" mac laptops. My road warrior machine is a 17" PowerBook G4 running 10.4.10 for those of you looking to compare.
I had no trouble getting the Jawbone to work. Start to finish - 6 minutes including finding, downloading and installing firmware update and making a test Skype call. Here's how I did it:
1. Update the Bluetooth firmware
2. Restart machine
3. Launch Bluetooth (I turn mine off to conserve battery while traveling)
4. Press and hold the Jawbone "Noise Shield Button" for 3 seconds... until light flashing red. (started with the headset off)
5. Add new Bluetooth device... choose Jawbone
6. Enter 0000 for the pairing code (four zeros)
Side note: I also tried pairing this device before updating the firmware. Kept getting an error that headsets were not supported on this machine. The firmware update took care of that!
