*nods* this is my "big project" for the next (and last) year or so - not 
only wrestling tapes, but all of my vids.  I've got shit like MTV Earth Day 
1991, an old Stryper concert, all kinds of MTV unplugged shit, and one of 
my personal favorites - and the oldest home-recorded clip in my collection 
- a 30-second snippet from CNN in 1988 showing Ric Flair at a campaign 
appearance for George Bush Sr. in Charlotte.  I hope I can still FIND that 
one, I haven't seen it in years.

I've got three big boxes full of tapes like this - a hundred eps or so of 
Beavis, a bunch of old Prime Time Wrestling shows (including Perfect 
dumping a pitcher of Water over Bobby Heenan, and the Plate Glass 
Superkick), even a couple of the old GWF shows from ESPN (I know Booker T 
is on one of them).  Many of these tapes are now approaching the very end 
of their effective lifespan; I hope that I can get them digitized and 
recorded to DVD before they decay completely.
