So now where is it? I have CD I and CD III and I can’t install the game without II. I know I found it about a week ago, and now I can’t locate it anywhere.

Curse these infernal multi-disk games!

The last time I lost a game CD, it turned up later inside a jewel-case for a Joan Baez album.

Got any Joan Baez? Or, failing that, any music CDs that you’ve played recently and left lying around?

This is one of the major reasons that I threw all my jewel cases away (saving any bits that had registry keys) and keep all my CDs in wallets. Saves a lot of space, and I don’t have to worry about accidentally putting the a CD in the wrong case and never seeing it again.

Working on it. I mean, probably 70 % is in cases. It’s always the install disk, though. Oh well. I busied myself with Paper Mario which isn’t even remotely on the same level but still entertaining!

We could share. Here, I’ll fax you one.  
Oh, darn, now there’s crumbs in the fax machine.
