It sort of got the ball rolling for Spielberg.

Since you have seen Jaws, you might remember the sound that the beast makes as it dies.

That sound was originally created for a similar scene in Duel.

From Wikipedia:

Quote
The dinosaur roar sound effect that is heard as the truck goes over the cliff is also heard in Jaws, also directed by Steven Spielberg, as the shark's carcass sinks into the ocean. Spielberg has said that this is because he feels there is a "kinship" between Duel and Jaws, as they are both "about these leviathans targeting everyman." He has also said that inserting the sound effect into Jaws was "my way of thanking Duel for giving me a career."

You won't regret it.

And some day I'll remember to watch Jaws.

I did read the book, I forgot to mention. So I know how it ends.

He hasn't been around lately.

But then, Biz hasn't either, I suppose.

BizB is less than two months older than me.  I believe one and two are Luci and Relandr (not sure which order) then Ivan.  I might be number six.  But who really is number one.

It was Colonel Mustard in the Study with the Candlestick. DUH!
How old are you Cheech? And where's Chong?
No, it was Betty Boop, with the double headed dildo, in the Hufflepuff common room.
