>oh fuck the distribution whats to do their work and they needed thissheet weeks ago...< so in the end, hes gotta do it himself: of course,now i could tell you how great this record is (what it is!) and what ahell of a motherfucker i am (also true!)... but i prefer telling yousentimental other bullshit instead... :)
