This is the line I found quite interesting.

And it was indeed a happy day for Jimmu Station floor supervisor Aneha Nobuo, who took home top honors at the picnic's highly-anticipated Bake Off. Amid fierce competition, Aneha's delectable "Upside-Down Pineapple Cake" won her 1st prize. Said long-time Bake Off Judge Suzuki Isoroku, "Her tasty cake will turn any frown face right into a smile one!" And the prize-a year's supply of Slusho! for her and her family-could not have made Aneha more happy. As her 5 excited children joyously hopped up and down, she screamed, "Each day is now a happy Slusho! time!"

Anyone else think there is a connection to the 1-18-08 pic and this? Not sure where that would lead us, but in my head it tied things together a little bit.

I'm gonna rewrite the fish article the way I think it happened.

Workers at the remote Mishima's Marina were interrupted today by a group of strange people who came lugging huge drums of an unknown liquid. After distracting the workers by giving out Slusho! drinks to them, they emptied out Mishima's largest fish tank, undoing months of fishery work. They then proceeded to fill the tank up with a bright yellow pungent Slusho! drink. As if that wasn't enough, Slusho! workers jumped into the tank and started playing around in the Slusho!. In order to get the workers out of the tank, Dock Captain Tanaka Jokichi threw fish back into the tank with the Slusho! staff. The fish quickly swam to the edges of the tank, jumping, attempting to get out of the tank. Amid the screaming of his crew and staff inside the tank, he said "In my 23 years, I've not seen Yellowtail ever swim so swiftly." The Smilers were not paid for the excursion. Jokichi pleaded with the Smilers, who agreed to leave in exchange for the deed for the marina, which they will use to create a new oil rig.

Is this a confirmation that Slusho! and/or DSI causes direct mutation to sealife? Relatively fast, I add.

If this is true, it is possible that an abundance on MGP or tanker explosion could create smaller creatures in the harbor.

But its a guy in the picture? Maybe just another chef in the competition?

Said an exuberant Yoshida, "We have made great strides to ensure the protection and longevity of all creatures on this planet, no matter how big or small. To receive this honor is a huge step for Tagruato." After posing for a picture with the Green Award, he smiled "I must note, it is not us that deserves this award, but this great Earth in which lies our future."


My emphasis... I find this paragraph to be the most interesting of the update. It's pregnant with forshadowing. Our future is IN the Earth, you say? Smile

Yeah, these updates are getting more surreal, sharing a Slusho bath with hyperactive fish!


Never mind that... we're to believe fisherman stripped down and took a bath together in a sticky, cold, slushy substance? Smile

They seem to be over emphasizing the Tagruato cares Foundation, is there a site we missed and want us to find it before the movie comes out?

I got excited when I seen this site the tcfoundation.com . Ha check out the logo :

I wondered about that, too. I had attempted a big search for a Tagruato Cares site previously, but came up with nothing. I even attempted to find a site for the Paraffun Wax Museum today, but no luck.

Maybe these postings are just intended to show them putting on a happy face on and to divert attention from the disappearance and/or destruction of one of their drilling platforms.

the fish that swims like it never did before and even starts jumping further leads me towards the mutation theory...some sort of suddenly grown deep sea animal/species
