3. Spooky!
You know... I'm just getting over my Jaws Phobia from childhood, so I think I'll opt out. Can't say that the water's any better on the Oregon Coast - we've had shark attackes where I live too!

:scared:

Any time you enter the ocean, you should EXCEPT to encounter one, and be thankful when you do not:)

6. By John Ciardi in "You Read To Me, I'll Read To You".....
a rough approximation (with apologies to the shade of Dr. Ciardi):

The thing about a shark is, teeth.....
One row above, one row beneath.
Now look still closer, and you'll find
He has another row behind.
Look closer still.
I'll hold your hat.
Has he another row behind that?

And now look in and

Look out!

Oh my.

I'll never know now. Oh well.

Goodbye.
