Or is it just rocks, we will just have to wait and see.

reminds me of Jesus pictures on toast or bagels, lol. we can imagine anything that we want. maybe i'm a 'show me' kind of person but the possibility of the bones being together after 5 years of storms, sea creatures brushing into them, and flotsam and jetsam ramming them is somewhere between slim and none.

sorry, i am a skeptic big time but i bet 'news' shows in the states will pick it up and run with it for as long as they can to get their ratings up. 30 seconds of facts will be followed by 2 hours daily of speculation. much of it will do nothing but leave me sleepless as lead moderator of an aruban forum.

Just thought i would help you out

hahahahaha... i love you too...hahahahaha.

oh well, that leaves me more awake hours and less awake time to do my wii fit plus. i can use it as an excuse though, right?

arubanut...nice to know you have our queens back!!! I will stand behind sherry with whatever she decides will become the course of action during this new developement. I know from the past, when she had to deal with this sad and tragic story, she kept it facts only, and no pushing or hair pulling was allowed. I think I will be safe in saying the same rules will apply again if this does indeed become news worthy and a thread that will remain open.
I will take a wait and see attitude on this....I don't really think anything could last that long in the water either...especially in such perfect order. But as sherry said...the mind can see anything if a suggestion is made to it. That would be wonderful if it was indeed NH (then this could be put to rest and the family could have the closure it deserves)......but for now we will have to wait and see what comes of this and let the professionals handle it.

And on another note....how about Tiger returning to golf??

hmmmmm, tiger woods? well, imho, although what he did was disgusting, it is between him and his wife and is actually none of our business and it has nothing at all to do with his talent as a golfer any more than john edwards behavior has to do with his ability to be good at making decisions that have nothing to do with his anatomy. i am as much offended by the fact that we intrude on private lives as i am by the behavior of the rich and powerful. however, his talent makes people watch and his behavior makes people root for the other guys. i guess in the sport of golf that's a win-win situation.

Well said sherry...couldn't have said it better. I agree with you 100%. I don't approve of what Tiger did...but it is none of my business. And I'm tired of the media telling me it is. He owes me nothing...he puts no food on my table nor does he pay my bills. I hate that people rely on other people's misery for there fun. Same for any other high profile person. I feel really bad for Sandra Bullock though. She put her heart out there on display for the whole world to see and proclaimed her love over and over for Jesse James and has had it crushed two weeks after the most amazing time of her life. But again....not my life to live.
I think the Masters will be a media circus and it will be interesting to see how it plays out. I will be watching not for the circus...but because I like to watch Tiger golf. Always have.....and I'm not a big golf fan...but I live with one...and Tiger has always made the game fun to watch.



SEE HOW I CHANGED THE SUBJECT ???

Very true!

I hope Tiger does well this April at the Masters!

There's not too much for me to add when you have spoken with so much feeling. Regarding what has been supposedly seen on the floor of the Caribbean it is my belief also that no bones would remain intact after all this time. The sea animals devour skeletal remains --- as far as Tiger is concerned-----I too agree that it is not my business what he does in his private life. I respect his athletic prowess and to see his and his family's privacy torn apart is a travesty. The media, as we all know, love to kick people when they are down. It will be very difficult for Tiger to appear in the Master's and I wish him the best. As far as his marriage, etc. I hope he and his wife can put this mess behind them and make a go of their marriage. I too feel so bad for Sandra Bullock. The t.v. keeps showing her speech as she accepted her academy award where she pours out her love for her husband. So very sad.

I agree with Sherry - it looks more like some rocks in an interesting pattern than an actual skeleton to me. LOL at the Jesus pictures!

Don't know why I know this but the brain does this:
The first is a phenomenon known as "anthropomorphizing". Basically, this means that the human brain tends to shape seemingly jumbled patterns into a coherent and familiar image; often people claim to "see" a human form or face in a complex pattern. Think of it as finding faces in the clouds, or seeing The Virgin Mary in an oil stain on the driveway.

I just wish the news wasn't so 'hollywood' and 'sensational' -
back to the basics of journalism and what is really important
to know.

i totally agree with it too. great post liz with a great statement.

Sure and enough----the "sighting" in Aruba was all over national news last night. I even got a call from my 11 year old granddaughter,"Guess what Grammy-----they may have found Natalee right where we went shorkeling. We saw it on a show on t.v." The mind certainly plays games, doesn't it.

Personally, I can't stand the infamous Nancy Disgrace.
(I loved the caricature that they used to have on the "Boston Legal" show).

That other bulletin board said the ocean bottom pictures were taken last October, but were just developed. It must be a very slow news day.

I generally like the Anderson Cooper, Christiane Amanpour and other reporting on CNN, but NG on the same parent organization is an embarrassment.

totally agree about who you like. btw, christiane amanpour is moving to cbs in the fall to do a sunday morning show. she has earned that.

can you imagine not developing film for 5 or 6 months after a vacation?

Sherry-----I heartily concur. I rarely look at Nancy Disgrace. She has remained on t.v. because she appeals to people like her, people who get off on sensationalism. 'nuff said.

Check the latest on abcnews.com - this is what the forensics experts had to say:

"I do not believe that these photos represent a body. I think it's a rock formation that certainly does present upon initial perception a suggestion of a human skeletal remains, but I do not believe that it is," Dr. Cyril Wecht said.
After looking at the photograph that first appeared in the Intelligencer Journal/Lancaster New Era newspaper, Wecht, one of the country's leading forensic pathologists, said the image doesn't match what a skeleton should look like.



"If you look at what would have to be the head you see that it does not really fit. It it's a front view, then what would be orbital sockets are far too low. If it's a rear view, then that does not fit because there's a lower portion that would not fit in with the neck," Wecht said.

Wecht said it's not likely that the skeleton of the missing teen could remain intact for that long.


"The whole idea of a skeletal remains being in the water for a period of a couple of months shy of five years is just untenable," Wecht said.

My heart goes out to Natalee's parents as they see and hear of this 'find'-----more than likely it will be rocks and/or coral.

Anyone who has done scuba diving or snorkeling in Aruba knows you see these rock piles all over the place, and I am voting with the majority here on the board......to me it looks like the rocks I have always seen while diving in Aruba. I do not see any rib bones, or a spine.
Sad for the Holloways for all this to open the wounds again and sad for Aruba to once again get slammed around by the ignorant Nacy Disgrace !

yes, you are totally right. i just hate to for both the holloways and aruba to have to go thru this over and over for the sake of the media. neither deserves it.

Well Aruba has responded quickly to the issue. Regardless of
what it is, they are doing something:
Police dive for ‘skeleton’

ORANJESTAD — This weekend, the Public Prosecution (OM) announced that the Police Corps Aruba (KPA) is going to dive to the location where the mortal remains of Natalee Holloway are possibly lying.
The OM does not wish to say exactly where and when the diving will take place. The diving operation is being organized with regard to an underwater picture that was published in the American press last week. The picture was taken near the Fisherman’s Hut, the location where the American teenager was seen last in 2005. The picture apparently shows mortal remains. The American couple, who had taken the picture, therefore thinks it could be Natalee Holloway.
Justice on Aruba received the picture from the FBI last Saturday. The OM is particularly interested in the skull-like shape seen in the picture. In a reaction, spokesperson Ann Angela of the OM stated that ‘unfortunately the people who had taken the picture could not indicate the exact location’. Nevertheless, someone on Aruba recognizes the location, says Angela. She could not reveal the name of the person. According to Angela, the reason that the OM does not wish to disclose the date and the location has to do with amongst others, safeguarding the evidence. By not being communicative, Justice wants to avoid attracting public to the location of the possible mortal remains. If the diving team indeed discovers mortal remains, these will be recovered immediately, says the OM. The remains will then be forwarded to the National Forensic Institute in the Netherlands for examination.

Yes, according to a dutch amigoe article, because the people did
not remember where they had taken the picture, the gov't had
picked the most likely spot where they went. They would not
disclose the site location because they did not want the place
to lose integrity due to the public and press showing up.

They dove the identified spots, did not find anything and
stopped until they could see if there were other locations
to look at.
