We reinstate our opinion of August 24, 2004, affirming Bowden's conviction, with the exception of footnote 5 and the sentence in the text to which it is appended. With respect to Bowden's sentence, we reverse the judgment of the district court, vacate the sentence, and remand to the district court for resentencing in accordance with Booker.
