What is the occasional case of fleas below?

How do I archive information so I can remember it even exists? I often save data files that might be helpful, articles that are examples of a specific concept, or email that I archive to use later. But then, it's out of my mind when I actually need it. I don't want to troll those folder files or tags in the hope that there 'might' be something helpful. Help! What do I do?

Debra, the short answer is that you move to the Australian Outback, and spend the rest of your life living blissfully with nature, after being adopted by a mob of kangaroos and raised as one of their own. Voila! No longer will you need to worry about files, terabyte disk drives, or retrieving information. Your only problem—solved easily with a quick field trip back to civilization—will be the occasional case of the fleas.

I think as part of his silly idea, if you lived with kangaroos you might have fleas. (Insects that bite and draw blood and are itchy. Usually they are on animals but sometimes humans too.) "A case of the fleas" would be an incident of having fleas.
