So about 16 years ago I lost disc 5 for Baldur's Gate. As some of you may know Baldur's Gate came in one of those stupid cardboard CD sleeves and if stored upright the discs could fall out. Well, it was kept in a filing cabinet, but never turned up through thorough searches. Ultimately i played through BG2 a year later with never having beaten BG1 and eventually bought a compilation around 2008 to finally play through it.
Yesterday I started cleaning out some old boxes and found some old sheet music books. Thinking nothing of them I placed 'em on top of a DVD shelf. I figured my mom would want that stuff so that was the easiest spot to put 'em out of the way at the time. A few hours later I bump it with something I was moving and send the sheet music flying. I clean 'em up and head to bed shortly afterwards. As I look down and to my left there is Baldur's Gate Disc 5 staring me in the face in pristine condition. All I can figure is years ago that sheet music went into that filing cabinet briefly and then came out of it with the disc.
Now where the hell did discs 1-4 go....
