Hey guys,

Today was my 17th birthday and it was indeed a great day. I got up bright and early, called out of school and went for what I have been waiting for, for a very long time now... my driver's license. I was very very nervous about the test but I passed it and I am so happy. A few weeks ago my mom bought me a brand new 2003 Chevy Cavalier LS Coupe, 2 door, black. It is an awesome car. I came home from the DMV and opened my birthday present which I ended up being very happy with. My parents gave me a card with $60 in it, alot of clothes and best of all cd's. How the cd's works is a few weeks before my birthday I write up a list of about 20 cd's for my dad, this way of the twenty he can pick out 5 or so that he wants to buy and I can still be suprised. I ended up getting Testament - Souls Of Black, Iron Maiden - Virtual XI, Def Leppard - Hysteria, Ozzy Osbourne - No Rest For The Wicked, and KISS - Animalize. Then with some of the birthday money I got from family and stuff I headed out on the highway to an independent record store called Vintage Vinyl where they sell alot of good stuff you can't find in most chain stores. I ended up buying W.A.S.P. - The Crimson Idol, Grave Digger - Exaclibur, and Various Artists - A Tribute to the Priest. Very cool stuff. The Priest tribute features Annihilator, Primal Fear, Hammerfall, Armored Saint, Therion, Skid Row, Iced Earth, Death and lots of other cool bands. Then later tonight my family and I went out for dinner and then we went to Target. While at Target I wandered over to Circuit City and finally bought myself Slayer's Reign In Blood. My mom also got me one last gift at Target which was a nice silver watch. All in all a great day and probably my best birthday ever.

Rock on!

I was lucky to find the vinyl but I've never seen it any other times. Never seen the CD at all. It's been deleted in Australia for about 10 years I think.
