I got as far as the first girl the shark gets at the beginning of the movie. When she started bobbing up and down like the bobber on my fishing line, I left the room and have never seen any more. I live on a river that has visibility of about 4" under water. I wasn't going to watch that movie or I wouldn't have ever gotten in the water, again, even though I know! Illinois has no sharks. Can't stand snakes in movies either. Tom G. I'd like to go to a municipal swimming pool on a hot summer day and play the 'Jaws' theme over the loudspeakers, just to see what would happen. -- 'Til next time, John H ****************************************** ***** Have a Spectacular Day! ***** ****************************************** |
