Natural Archivist

I'm a natural born archivist. In fact, when you think about it, that's the crux of blogging and I was blogging time-stamped journal style entries years before the birth of the blogosphere. I've always felt a need to document events with scrap books, photos, journals and video tape.

As mentioned, I was going through boxes of ancient artifacts this afternoon when I found a series of video tapes. These are sporting events I've recorded because I knew there would come a day when I'd want to watch them again. Below are tapes that contain the following games.

• The very first Toronto Raptors game
• Wayne Gretzky's last game
• The very last game at Maple Leaf Gardens
• The 1991 All-Star game at SkyDome
• The very last game at Exhibition Stadium

My foresight was bang on. I'm aching to watch all five right now.
