If it had a return address, that fish could have returned it to the right plaice.

It sounds like a folk legend.

I bet is made some good sushi...

aint buying it.

Those crazy japanese and their balloon schemes. They just can't let that idea go!

I've used the Flatfish express for years, and I can only commend them on their reliability and quality of service.
/OH R'YLEH?/

Japanese Animals doing something amazing over a long period of time and then getting killed trifecta in play?!?

This story smells like the front row of a
Conway Twitty concert....

FarkFish:

I came in here just hoping to see that

/+1

In elementary school we did this as a class activity. Wrote a letter, tied it to a helium balloon, hoped for friends/family to find it. Never heard about mine.

You've got fish!

Toshiro Mifune's Letter Opener: If it had a return address, that fish could have returned it to the right plaice.

This kind of story just proves to me that there is a cod.

yeah but is she cute? This Thread Useless W/O Pics

Came here for the comments about how she contributed to environmental pollution and "this is why I don't eat fish!" commentary. Leaving disappointed but liking the interesting comments made so far.

/takes her hot-dog and slinks home... guess this isn't the flame-worthy topic I was hoping for.

I wonder how many seanimals those kids killed with their balloons.

Don't you mean smelt?

/not a Twitty grouper or anything, just pointing it out for the halibut

I'm surprised he recovered the note but not the panties.

Interesting how it actually stayed relatively close.
I always wondered how long it takes for the balloons to fade.

And admirable how the fish gave up its life to complete the experiment.

Bless your sole!


perhicano: Those puns were utter carp.

You're saying that they're crappie?

What a kick in the bass!

*perks up* How many would you say? Would you say that one is too many? Now try saying it with conviction and lots of exclamation points! :) ... Oh, and it's "sea-animals."

/How did that correction make you feel?
// And remember, this is for posterity so be honest. How do you feel?

Cool. What did the fish write?

/I'm in!

I came here for a Mr Limpett reference and i was not dissapointed.

I'm from the north suburbs of Chicago. When I was in 1st grade I remember my brother (2 yrs older) actually received a letter from a guy in New Hampshire about 2 months after releasing the balloon.

/the fish story is better

Felidstar, I hope they killed at least eleventeen seanimals.

!!!!1!!one!

/I forgets this part
//in my previous post, that is.

I wonder where that letter's gone.....

sounds like the plot of some sort of anime.

Maybe Natsumi's magic fish delivery service?

So, the letter was returned?

If you pick up this letter, please write to me," the letter reads, listing the school's address.

That always bugs me about stories like these. It seems like every time someone puts a message in a bottle, or tied to a balloon, or whatever, the person that finds completely ignores the instructions and instead sends the message back!

WTF?!

Thanks for making me feel better on a boring Sunday afternoon :D

danduran: i was thinking the exact same thing.

fish: danduran: i was thinking the exact same thing.

Excellent!

I like the appropriate use of a bank fisherman in a story about catching a fish 3,300 feed beneath the Pacific.

Maybe next time, Mr. AP Editor, you could find a picture of a commercial fishing trawler towing a 30-mile gill net.

Her underpants, however, are still strangely missing.

The note read:

"これは 塩辛いフィ ッシ ュアイの好みか らある"

So am I the only one who feels sorry for the fish that had to swim around with a farking letter, balloon, and string in its belly?
