didnt know this is my first packing job and it really didnt turn out to be
a hassle like everyone says... maybe in a year itll get boring but so far so
good... I should be doing the packing job on until december and someone should
take over in january for me... So maybe ill grow on some of you bastards over
the next couple of months... Anyhow i dont want to sit here and ramble on
about how packing the pack was cool and everything so well just get into the
monthly updates and news...
