Ever have a CD avalanche like losing at Jenga?

I just did. They spilled to the left, right, front, but most just went down behind the rack. Makes me want to say bad words. Okay I did say bad words but it would be inappropriate to post them.

This is not the first time and my long BBQ tongs work well for retrieval.

I polish my CD cases with a silicone product. They are way slipperier than usual.
The mark up less and look better longer. But naturally they do not stay in stacks very well.

Thanks for the work-day laugh. Sorry, nothing personal of course. But the imagery of jenga and your writing style was funny. Not to mention the random post. Cheers

Never found any cracked cases. I am starting to think seriously about computer audio but since I am too lazy to put my CD's away I am also too lazy to tackle the task of ripping a couple thousand CD's. The prospect of better sound beckons, though....

My sympathies are with you. I bet I can guess what words you've said especially when you find some of your cd cases cracked. Doesn't happen to often now as mine are ripped to a server.
