A Shark Attacked My Best Friend
June 20, 2025 - In honor of the 50th anniversary of the theatrical debut of the movie Jaws, the film that was the inspiration for these events, D. K. Wall recorded the story in audio and video. The original story was posted on October 9, 2022.
A shark attacked my best friend when I was 11. His screams were awful. The silence that followed was worse. I was alone in the ocean.
Is Typhoon still the fastest of the herd??
happy 4th to you and the thundering herd too Hu Dad! xoxo
Happy 4th of July weekend all. It looks like the Herd has a head start in the weekend already.
I just love that Typhoon has a buddy. Happy Independence Day to you.
Happy 4th, hope it is nice and quiet for all.
Have an excellent holiday
I’m hoping you have a relatively quiet few days. I always think of Frankie’s noise issues.
Happy Independence Day to the entire Thundering Herd family ❤️
