Jason Lin my younger days, and nothing of much consequence, luckily.
My worst storage-related disaster comes with a short story. When I was 13, our (separated, thankfully) garage burned to the ground after a lightning-struck power pole fell on it. At any rate, it also blew the house circuit box and as a precaution given the proximity to the house, we all were told to leave the house...of course, I grabbed my most treasured item - my binder of cards...and one of my best suffered from the trip, because it was at the top of the first page, and it was raining outside...well, when I pulled the card out of the page later...this otherwise gorgeous 1970 Hank Aaron lost the lower right corner of front paper...tradgedy!!!....you can imagine that this card is heck of a lot more important to a 13 year old than an adult...I traded hard to get it...oh well.
