When attending a theater screening of âJaws,â is it only proper to wear your Alsta Nautoscaph diving watch, as itâs the timepiece Hooper wears in the film. #Jaws

âJAWSâ earned $8.1M domestically this weekend for the filmâs 50th anniversary. Among the biggest re-release weekends of the decade.

I think we have to withhold prayers until God starts doing what we want. Heâs a fiend for prayers and I think heâs just used to getting them. Cut off the supply and draw him out

I hope everyone is headed to a movie theater to see JAWS this weekend. Itâs the only sensible response to JAWS playing in theaters this weekend. #Jaws

They lost more than half of their starting O-line in that game. I guess you could just assume that would happen again, but I doubt it.

All the more reason to bring in a generational pass rusher who can potentially give the offense another series or two.

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask âdo you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.â Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment. No questions asked. No proof required. Pass it on.

This is 100% true. The press could have buried Trump a thousand times over if it cared to.

Trump desperately wants lower rates because he A) needs to refinance his existing debt, which is significant, B) the donor class is on his ass, and C) he knows the economy is sinking and he wants to give it a sugar high so that he looks successful.

Every summer we visit our in-laws and I switch it off their TV when no one is around, and every year when we go back itâs been turned back on. My brother-in-law has fairly high-end devices (TV is a top of the line LG OLED) and must actually prefer it on.

The blocking of these materials certainly sucks, but the previous admin had FOUR YEARS to make hay of this, and didnât get it done. The typical molasses-like progress only gives the GOP more cover to claim this is just political theater.
