The best part - two weeks after seeing Jaws we went to ****ing FLORIDA for the first time. When we went to the beach I wouldn't go out in the water deeper than my knees. Of course, I wasn't alone in that regard. There were plenty of adults doing the same thing. Most of them, actually.
I was in the Navy, and I've been to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. And I can count on one hand the number of times I've swam in the ocean and have some fingers left over.
