                My first phone was 1988 and sorry I didn't keep it might be worth something if sold by weight.

                  • Several decades after the filming of "Jaws" (1975), Lee Fierro, who played Mrs. Kintner, walked into a seafood restaurant and noticed that the menu had an "Alex Kintner Sandwich." She commented that she had played his mother so many years ago. The owner of the restaurant ran out to meet her - none other than Jeffrey Voorhees, who had played her son. They hadn't seen each other since the original movie shoot.

                    Roy Scheider stated in an interview that in the scene where Fierro smacks him in the face in "Jaws," she was actually hitting him. Apparently, the actress could not fake a slap and so the seventeen takes were some of the "most painful" of his acting career. Also, Fierro stated in several interviews that in one of the takes when she slapped Roy Scheider, his glasses fell off.

                    Nicki Galland, a novelist who credits Fierro for inspiring her creativity, said that Fierro “was tickled by [her film notoriety]. She found it really entertaining. She would say, ‘If you told me that’s what I’d be known for, I wouldn’t believe it.’ She had no screen training. She trained as a theater actor.”

                    During the period after the filming of "Jaws," Lee operated a children's theatre in Tisbury Martha's Vineyard with friend Mary Payne. Lee was a well known force for acting and the performing arts for the citizens of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts.​

                            There was loads of Kojacks around then. If you were in any way folically challenged, you were stuck with that moniker.

                            • More useless information. Until recently i never knew that Art had been an Olympic event. I was told that an Irish artist Mainie Jellet represented Ireland in the 1928 games in Amsterdam. Must have been exciting to watch. Vico would probably have stayed up all night watching it

                                And Ireland haven’t won an Olympic athletics gold medal since 1956. They might win one this year with the relay team.
