  General Box #5
 
this box is ready to go. Standard procedure, eh? It would be nice if the longtimers let some of the newbies post their requests first, but whatever. This box will have a lot of blue and a lot of wheels as those were held back from General #1 but (...) (25 years ago, 6-Aug-99, to lugnet.market.jambalaya)

Sorry for the delay, I had to repack the stuff in a new box, and figure out WHAT in the heck to put in it. I've gotten so DANG many boxes in the mail/UPS lately that I almost lost the GB box in the loose packing from all the boxes. I will admit, I (...)

Oof, that HURT... Thomas - it's time to split the GB5 box into 2 - MOOKIE - can you coordinate it, or should Thomas (since he should have it early next week).

does it look like it's all pretty good stuff yet??? If Thomas doesn't mind the added expense of splitting it he can do it, or if he wants to send it to me and we'll get another box started doesn't matter.
