The opinion filed August 27, 1999 is amended in paragraph (7) of Section C, Lines 14 through line 19 (191 F.3d at 1089) to read as follows:

"The defendant claimed that the evidence found in the truck did not belong to him, and that he did not know what was in the bag.  The jury found that the defendant knew what was in the bag, and the district judge agreed.  In fact, when the defendant tried to elaborate on the alibi in his trial testimony, he ended up contradicting himself."

The full court has been advised of the suggestion for rehearing en banc, and no judge of the court has requested a vote on the suggestion for rehearing en banc.  Fed.R.App.P. 35(b).
