I saw the movie "Jaws" when I was less than 8 years old. I used to believe that the chipped enamel in the bathtub (which looked like a goldfish) might turn into a shark and eat me. As a consequence, whenever I bathed I would cover the chip with a drinking glass so that I could "cage" the shark. Crazy imagination!
