Oak Bluffs, Martha's
Vineyard - The first day of fishing in the 22nd Annual Oak
Bluffs Monster Shark Tournament starts tomorrow. Here are some thoughts

"Mankind shares the elemental
instinct of survival with every plant, animal and insect on
Earth. Lose this instinct and sooner or later you'll be culled from the

that fear in the ultimate shark tale, Jaws. Anyone who sees the movie
is guaranteed to think twice about swimming at the beach for a long,
