“Sometimes that shark looks right at ya. Right into your eyes. And the thing about a shark is he’s got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll’s eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn’t even seem to be livin’… ’til he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then… ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin’. The ocean turns red, and despite all your poundin’ and your hollerin’ those sharks come in and… they rip you to pieces.”

“Great” white? Great white?

This is just another example of the systemic racism in our society.

I hope one is waiting in the waters off Martha’s Vineyard for a certain someone.

Early Bird shark special is the all-you-can-eat seal buffet.

Can they be trained to eat only Leftists and RINOs? Or just summer occupants of Martha’s Vineyard (and certain nearby seaside mansions)?

If you are going to get eaten by a shark, might as well go viral on the internet before you get digested.

They can eat everyone in Massachusetts as far as I’m concerned.

My guess is she will be in the surf at Cape Cod in early June.

A white shark named "DIDI" was detected last year in Maine on June 15 at Hermit Island. That is farther north than Cape Cod.-Tom

“She’s a pretty good pinger"

OK, what's her FReep handle? Does she go by "Capt. Tom"?

Robert Shaw was not even nominated for an Academy Award for his role in Jaws.
However, everyone always remembers that monologue/story.

Jaws came out in 1975.
The same year as The Godfather 2.
Deniro won the award that year for best supporting actor.
Two other actors were also nominated in their roles from Godfather 2.
Can you guess without looking?

You want the sharks to stay away?

Kill a shark.

The other sharks will leave.

They come back, kill another one.

Sharks leave an area when one of their own has been killed.

Do it often enough and the sharks may never come back.

Now the question is, what does that do to that area?

Are sharks a necessary part of the system?

Well, yes.

So what will a shark free area look like?

We don't know.

Will something else move in to fill that niche?

We don't know.

But probably.

Will it be better or worse then the sharks?

Could be!
