JAWS, Through the Eyes of the Innocent

Show me the way to go home, I'm tired and I want to go to bed. I had a little drink about an hour ago and it went right to my head. I never get tired of that scene, never get tired of the movie.

Our family watches it all the time. We have JAWS on VHS, we've never updated to DVD, it's always on TV. The family, all together one Sunday, including a couple girlfriends, we were deep into "movie" conversation. JAWS of course being the classic that it is started to dominate the conversation. Boy #2's girlfriend was quiet, too quiet. She explains to us she's never seen it. The hell you say! Boy #3 and I torn apart the spare room looking for the JAWS tape, Boy #1 and the husband made fun of her and Boy #2 started wiring the VCR to the TV again.
To actually find someone that has never seen JAWS and to be able to watch it with them as they see it for the first time, well that's huge. Then add the fact that the girlfriend is packing to go on an ocean cruise with her family, that's just priceless.
She's a screamer. She was sitting in a chair and Boy #2 was sitting on the floor, she kept smacking him on the head saying, "Oh my God!" He eventually put his football helmet on.
We haven't watched the uncut version of JAWS in so long we had forgotten how much Quint was chewed up. No wonder my cousin had nightmares after she saw it at the theater when she was 12. She thought the shark was going to come out of her toilet. It's time to upgrade to DVD and have some more people over to scare.

High School DVD Moments

I tried so hard to get one of my boys to join the Drama Club in High School. It would be nice to go to a school function that isn’t sports related, not that there’s anything wrong with sports, I’d just like to see my boys expand their horizons a little bit. They all have such a wonderful sense of humor that I’d really like to see them on stage. Boy #3 is my last hope he still has two more years of High School left after this year and I think I’m getting to him!

Boy #2 has been on the High School morning announcements, which are filmed and filmed in sport events. I want to see them! I keep asking him for the DVD that was made of a dodge ball game he was involved in, teachers vs. students, but he doesn’t know who has one. I want these moments in their lives and I’m willing to pay for it. A DVD backup is easier than I thought. I really thought that someone that made a copy of a DVD had to have a college degree in geek. But I found DVD copying software at 123 CopyDVD.com. I can do it myself. Now all I have to do is try to get straight answers from the teenagers as to the whereabouts of said DVD’s.
