It's a When Harry Met Sally moment. We're cataloguing our videos and DVDs like Meg Ryan's character does in the aforementioned film. It's a good idea for us actually because we have so many video tapes with films and TV series' on them that we've lost track of how many we have or, indeed, what we have at all. So we're putting all our media on to 5" x 3" index cards and alphabetically storing them so we can find things easier. Every tape and DVD that is not pre-recorded will be given a reference number which will also be put on the index card. Then the tapes and DVDs will be stored numerically. All pre-recorded stuff will be stored in order of viewing suitability. So all the Us and UCs go together, then the PGs, 12s, 15s, 18s and Es. It's for the good of the future. Or so Anna tells me. I hope so. My hand doesn't half ache after writing out 100 index cards.

When you get tired of that system, you could try a database. Access would work...
You're so organized it's a bit frightening.
