I was living on the Vineyard when they were maing that movie. A buddy of mine who was out of work at the time guarded the shark for $150.00 a day. Around the same time a doctor told him he had sirhosis (sic) of the liver. What a boon to his alcholism that $150.00. My buddy figured the money saved him because he stopped drinking beer and drank screwdrivers instead. His reasoning was the OJ would make him healthy again. Didn't work. Great friekin movie though.

33 Years ago this Summer Jenn and I honeymooned on MV. It was a kick to see all those actors at breakfast in Oak Bluffs and all the signs changed . The theme is "Our Song"

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
