BigShoes Shark Year in Review

Published by violetteb at 5:12 pm under Does the Shoe Fit? Edit This

Okay it may be a little premature to say this since I’m not quite sure yet. But it is very possible that Jaws is the number one post topic outside of the topic of shoes at BigShoes. What does that say about me? Or more importantly what does that say about you if you’ve returned, weren’t you passing through for a nice pair of flats, heels or boots?

Yes, a year of BigShoes and what do I have to show for it? Hungry sharks. Today is a good day to write about sharks as I watch a few shark movies on SciFi and have to comment that what is up with Beowulf on before the Spring Break Shark Attack premiere? I spend an afternoon watching Raging Sharks and Shark Attack 3: Megalodon and then we slip in some Beowulf before the main attraction. Looks like some network is too worried about changing their name from SciFi to SyFy than they are about inconsistent programming. Do you think the logo will be written in bubble letters?

No worries, here is the BigShoes Shark Year in Review starting with 4th of July weekend 2008. This will keep you busy if you aren’t a Beowulf fan.

I Go Swimming
This one is really about really cool music and sharks.

If You Missed Jaws This Weekend
Don’t have time for your favorite movie. The YouTube movie in this post sums up Jaws in 60 Seconds.

And I Missed My Jaws’ Marathon
I know, really, all that buildup and I missed it. That’s okay you get my quick commentary on all four Jaws movies…you didn’t even know there were four, did you. Okay if you did, who is still alive by the time we get to the fourth?

Don’t Go In The Water
Oh yeah, this was a good one. A real life news story that I really, truly, sincerely had nothing to do with.

Music from Jaws
Guess what, Labor Day weekend was approaching and I of course had Jaws on my mind AND they were having another Jaws’ marathon. Time to break out the popcorn and find something appropriate at YouTube to share.

Robert Shaw
We remember Quint.

Jaws Labor Day 2008
What can I say; it is Labor Day finally and we have a tribute to Roy Scheider. I reminisce about the next time I will get to talk about Jaws.

Not Jaws
I thought it was Jaws related, but alas it was NOT.

Then there were the Jaws cameo appearances in the following posts, really not intended to be posts on Jaws but referenced none the less.

Talula Does the Hula and the Name Game
Tag You’re It
The Shining
Sizing Up Sasquatch
Blah Blah Blah Ads

…and then the announcement of the BigShoes Birthday Bash…I await with anticipation till the time (20 days later) I can get around to posting my references to Jaws, lucky you, today.

Okay, maybe I DO understand why my husband looks at me strange when I say, “Hey, Jaws is on!”
