 		That's nothing. My wife caught me screaming at the two little midgets on the Slusho page, which thanks to another blog owner I am now referring to as Joanie and Chachi.

BTW: In the Flash source code, both of them are referred to as "girl"; "girl1" and "girl2". The more you know...

 		Another thing to think about is since J.J. saw how big Transformers was gonna be, that's why they ran the teaser before the movie. I'm thinking that if there's another big film coming up in the near future that everyone knows about, there might be a second teaser, or an actual trailer with straight answers.

 		How about this for a theory (somewhat mentioned before, but not emphasized enough):

Each pic on the 1-18-08 site goes up after a related website is discovered. The 2nd one went up around the time Slusho was found. We have no way to verify this, but it's possible that the minute the hit counter detected a hit on the website, the immediately put up pic 2. What this means is that site 3 was in fact found, leading to the appearance of pic 3 on 1-18-08.

I suggest we go back to the posts around the time pic 3 appeared and try to go back to some of the sites and really rule out everything. This may be why were stagnating. Site 3 may have been discovered, but dismissed as being OOG.

I could be wrong, but then again, we've been waiting on pic 4 for a while, and pics 2 and 3 went up in pretty quick succession... Maybe I'm right.

*Blue K takes credit for Joanie and Chachi, hangs head in shame*

Interesting about them being both girls...kind of makes more sense if one prescribes, as I do, to the theory that Slusho is an organism that's reproducing little clones of itself.

After further consideration, I'm convinced "163" means something.

It appears in two places:

1) NY1 reporting 63 degrees. As stated by New York locals, the degree readout is much larger than it should be, which means they want us to see it.

Also, for the record, it's on screen at the same time the Slusho guy is.

2) Slusho footer: one full cup, the number six, three full cups.

Now, if we only knew what to USE it for...


1) I lived in NY for a while, and that NY1 graphic looks pretty standard to me. If the degree graphic is bigger than normal, it's not bigger by much. I don't think 163 is going to be significant. I'd be happy to be were wrong.

2) The explanation that I read earlier about the cups on the Slusho! homepage seems to make a lot of sense to me: One giant Slusho! cup (1), Eighteen total Slusho! cups -18-, eight empty Slusho! cups. Thus, 1-18-08. That seemed logical to me. Maybe not. (But then why are there five full cups?)

Another thing I thought of: If you can't drink just six, you must have to drink at least seven. Or does that imply that you can drink five but if you drink six you'll have to drink at least one more?

Some other various and annoying thoughts. Apologies if any of this has been gone over before. I've been reading far and wide on all this, and I'm just trying to get all my thoughts down:

The seven spikes on the Statue of Liberty's crown represent the seven seas or the seven continents. (There are by the way, eleven points in the SOL's base. 7-11! Get it? Like a Slurpee! Eh, I got nothin.)

I've been intrigued by this Albert Pike business and the hints at the Freemason stuff. One of the big things about Pike is his status as a 33 degree Freemason. The connection there might be (I think this is true), in order for Slusho! to be in a sort of transition state between frozen and solid, it would have to be around 33 degrees. I'm just throwing that out there.

There was also that WHOIS reference to Henry Kelvin, who everyone says is two names from Lost, but couldn't it also be a reference to Kelvin and temperatures (absolute zero, etc).

The statements from the trailer that have been deemed significant are: "I saw it! It's alive! It's huge"

There are corollaries in the Slusho! history, right?:

"His accomplishments are many, he is very big."

"...SLUSHO came to life!!!!!!"

Is there one for "I saw it"? Maybe the dream Ganu has? I don't know.

Also, is there anything to the idea that the dollop on top of the Slusho! cup looks somewhat remotely like the flame on the SOL's torch?

Okay. That's all. Had to get it out. Embarassed

Text form site:

Pygmy whales-aka "the littlest whale"(s) produce this substance called ambergris.
Quote:
Ambergris (Ambra grisea, Ambre gris, ambergrease, or grey amber) is a solid, waxy, flammable substance of a dull grey or blackish color, with the shades being variegated like marble. It possesses a peculiar sweet, earthy odor similar to isopropyl alcohol. Now largely replaced by synthetics, it is occasionally still used as a fixative in perfumery.

Ambergris was also molded, dried, decorated and worn as jewellery, particularly during the Renaissance. It was often formed into beads.


Quote:
Ambergris occurs as a biliary secretion of the intestines of the sperm whale, and can be found floating upon the sea, or in the sand near the coast. Because giant squids' beaks have been found embedded within lumps of ambergris, scientists have theorized that the whale's intestine produces the substance as a means of facilitating the passage of hard, sharp objects that the whale might have inadvertently eaten. Ambergris can be found in the Atlantic Ocean; on the coasts of Brazil and Madagascar; also on the coast of Africa, of the East Indies, The Maldives, mainland China, Japan, India, Australia, New Zealand and the Molucca islands. However, most commercially collected ambergris came from the Bahama Islands, Providence Island, etc. It is also sometimes found in the abdomens of whales.


as for previously not alive whales located in NYC look here:

 		I was curious if this was a discussion regarding the movie or If this may be another CLUE.

It's movie discussion. The headings are "slusho.jp, theories"

One theory I am pondering is the significance of the numbers we are seeing repeated-3 and 6 in particular. we found the first pic (no idea when it was posted) after the trailer came out before Transformers on 7/3. The next one showed up I think on 7/6 and then pic3 showed up on 7/12. 7/15 was a Sunday- maybe they take Sundays off? I am wondering if we might, in that case, get another picture tomorrow on 7/18... we'll see if that holds water tomorrow- it might be another possible explanation and one I think more plausible than having found a third page- no offense intended but we've found a lot of junk...
