Keep these updates coming! Has anyone speculated as to the "explosive" nature of their remarks-to-be?

From SM:

UPDATE: On Canal 90 by www.arubadag.com

From the early hours, there seems to be some heavy weather in the area of Aruba. Lots of rain is expected. If it will be as last year with Ivan, there was much flooding at that time, it could upgrade to a Tropical Storm according to Canal 90. Hope it will not be as last year.

Sea could get a little bit turbelent, the depression./storm is close to Bonaire at this time. Expected time of effects of storm will be more or less at ....(mmm...he is talking alot, but no mention of time, seems he forgot the question)

62 used to old but now it is downright youthful. My parents are in their high 80's and going strong. When they speak of the youth of today, they usually mean anyone under 70. I am in my mid-50's and they refer to me as "still a kid."

Tropical Storm could wash a body on shore too. Wouldn't that be something?!

Did you notice that in the interview last night of 2 of Natalee's classmates that one of them said that everyone was looking for a TAXI? Could Natalee thought she was getting into a taxi w/Joran? I wouldn't be surprised if he told her that the Kalpoes were providing a taxi.

Tito on Fox News states his Aruban police sources informed him the Kalpoes has nothing to do with this case and PVDS may be rearrested.

Yes we have sliced and diced that one. IIRC, the last info that is out is that Natalee had asked Joran to take her home. She may have thought that he was taken her home in a taxi.

Tito tells Fox News that they (Aruba) can prosecute without a body, but the evidence must be strong and/or a strong confession.

50's are awesome...let's celebrate...and never trust anyone under 50!

One thing y'all might have come across...in the interview of a couple of Natalee's classmates (some time ago), one of the girls said that she saw Natalee that night. The host asked her if she saw Natalee at C&C or at the hotel.

She answered that she saw her and wanted to "just leave it at that." Something to that effect.

I've tried to keep up and don't remember that being explained but if so, can anyone point me to that or give a summary of what she might have meant? TIA!

Various reports are emerging of things getting "ugly" between the press and Aruban passers by, with some claiming that while many islanders first seemed to be focusing their anger at the Van der Sloot family, they are now more than ever blaming America and American media for bringing this trouble to their shores.

Well I for one don't blame the Arubans one bit for resenting the American media.

Greta has been fair, but some in our media --most notably Whorealdo and O'Reilly, but also including someone I normally like, Sean Hannity-- have been incredibly arrogant and condescending toward the Arubans.

American commentators who blast the Arubans (and the Dutch) for their justice system and for "botching" the investigation, yet are ignorant of the well-established Napoleonic Code the Dutch system is based upon, make themselves obnoxious and ridiculous.

How many of these media demi-gods understand that none of the "suspects," including both van der Sloots, would likely have been detained for even one minute under our American system, given the increasingly obvious dearth of evidence to hold them, search their homes and cars, etc. ?!

The Dutch system clearly gives their "suspects" far fewer rights than does ours; and IF any of these suspects are guilty of a crime, more likely the Dutch system will ferret it out of them than would ours. If this incident had occurred in America, I'm quite sure none of the so-called suspects we know of would have been jailed, interrogated or had their homes, cars, or cell phone records searched.

And how many American media demi-gods who sneer at the Dutch remember that the Netherlands is one of the few Western European nations that is supporting the U.S. in Iraq!

you can defend their system of justice, but what say you of the corruption? THAT is what has americans up in arms, much more so than the differing systems.

I noticed that also. The friend said that if they had seen Natalee get into that "taxi" with J they would have stopped her. Natalee probably did think she was getting into a taxi. J should be told that since he said he "didn't do anything to Natalee" that it means she must be alive. So he will be kept in jail until Natalee shows up!

Greta spoke with Beth last night. Natalee's family spoke with the prosecutor and they were not very happy after the meeting. I guess that's why they are having this news' conference.
