I'm inclined to disagree with the implication of these posts which seems to be that the bones are old and dry.....here is why....
this set of bones consists of the radius, ulna, carpals, metacarpals, and the finger digits, complets. If a dog or other animal dug it up, it is likely that they would be dry. The group of bones has survived the digging up as well as the beating of the trip to the dogs owner in its mouth. The ligaments between every bone here would also have been dry and therfore broken apart easily......yet this set of bones is intact.
Red clay or not, I am near-certain these bones are fresh....perhaps recently buried, but still very fresh.
Green is from Canada? Another major GROAN from this girl!!
Aruba Finds Dutch Influence Queer
Well, sort of, I guess. It seems some Arubians were rather intolerant when it came to a married lesbian couple from the Netherlands.
Reports suggest a significant portion of Aruba is somewhat conservative in nature. I wonder how they feel about the generally permissive attitudes which seem to dominate a segment of their nightlife as typified by clubs like Carlos and Charlies.
If I understand much of what I have read, there is a significant number of Arubians who have no love for that sort of nightlife and all of the trouble it brings.
Those attitudes stand in stark contrast with the many pictures of some of that nightlife many have already seen. Apparently, as exemplified in the picture top right - some people think C and C actually sucks.
New York City - AP World News.
ORANJESTAD, Aruba -- When two women tried to register as a married couple in Aruba last year, people on this Dutch island threw rocks at them, slashed their car tires and protested against gay unions outside Parliament.
The hostility eventually led Charlene and Esther Oduber-Lamers to flee the Caribbean territory, which refused to recognize their marriage even though the couple legally wed in the Netherlands four years ago.
"If we accept gay marriage, would we next have to accept Holland's marijuana bars and euthanasia?" government spokesman Ruben Trapenberg said. "They have their culture, we have ours."
Do you think that if this were Natalee's bone and she had been buried in red clay, that her bones could appear like this? I guess, I mean, they'd absorb the red from the clay, then, quickly?
Oh, I hope I am making sense, I am tired!
I am just wondering if it is possible that she could have been taken off island and buried in red clay in Venezuela in a shallow grave and this fellow's dog found this bone. If the grave were near a shore, during that hurricane that went through, the seas would have risen some and certainly could have dislodged the body.
"government spokesman Ruben Trapenberg said. "They have their culture, we have ours."
I'll bet trapenberg is a fag himself, LOL.
Whats that prime-ministers name again? Oduber, ain't it?
Great, Thanks for finding it, there's another one by the same author.
Our little energizer mommy,:) God bless her!
a drop-sized piece of the bone marrow will tell for sure whether these bones are red herrings or not. But then, Hugo CChavez is not exactly a fan of America, so we can be assured of his bureaucracy working at a snails pace, sadly.
Thank you PNSN. I don't deserve all that. It just comes naturally because of God I guess.
Yes, I am afraid you are right. :o(
Yes, you just echoed my friends.
Mark spot!!
You've got it Vn_survivor_67-68.

according to this much of Aruba has red clay, thus the red star in their flag..I would also suspect volcanic rock and some leftovers from historical gold mining....
I'm having trouble getting a perspective on the length of those bones - like, for instance, is that a regular-sized newspaper they are laying on? If so, looks like from a much lankier person than Nat. I'm 5'8" and pretty sure my forearm could not span a paper like that.
I looked at it in that way also......notice the very large thumb knuckle.....perhaps arthritis of traumatic disfigurement?
typo correction, sorry
perhaps arthritis *OR* traumatic disfigurement?
TAW
I live in 'fly over' country. Appalachia. It is not only 'what will eventually happen to these countries'. It is here at home also.
Our own street is not the same as when we purchased in 1987.
Down the street, within a mile, are meth, shootings, drug deals, prostitution, robberies, a corrupt city hall, and the unsolved murder of 4 kids on their prom night this past May.
The city has but 50,000 people.
Wonder what will happen with this country also at the current rate of decline?
