"Jump The Shark" - The very point in time when something good goes "bad", usually referring to television. Taken from the TV show Happy Days, which, most will agree, went "bad" when Fonzy jumped the shark on his motorcycle.

Is it just me, or does the name "Fonzy" sound pretty funny now, but sounded cool back then?

I can't help but picture Fozzy Bear when I hear Fonzy.

Jump the shark refers to something that has passed it's peak.

it's easier for people to buy a motor from a late model 911 then it is to build there existing motor. That is why you see so many of these swaps.

Unless you are dumb enough to build on a _newer_ transplant, thus getting the joy from both ends
