its my understanding the challenge of being seen was issued by the dominoes player...standard jailhouse push and pull...it was kalpoe who went ballistic, not the person who made the statement, and in jail, these three guys are punks even if one of them is 6-5...its very easy to understand why when they told one story the really tough inmates would throw the knowlege they are lying in their faces...even just frightening them would be a great jail game for those inmates (if the inmates knew, how long until the cops did, too?)

Jug & Beth: Things are really moving. We're getting alot closer.

I assume it wasn't with one of those calling cards purchased over the counter. She'd have to have had the dialing and card number with her. Don't think she did.

SIM cards are not normally purchased over the counter.

[presently no screen name]

I forgot about that - did it as a kid, also.

[sarasota]

Seems like what we heard online today about the test results, was a rumor--from Aruba.

[Jrabbit]

dang....all these people love Natalee so much. My heart continues to hurt for them.

[sarasota]

That was my take on it as well.

[cajungirl]

Oh monkey,,it is fun to fight here, relieves the tension. Besides Dave's wife, the dreaded Stepmother, is on tv, "out of her place",,,heh hehe

[theophilusscribe]

from Aruba.

Disinformation station. (sigh)

[mel]

Sad to say but I think it is a specious offer, because whoever put up the money probably realizes that the girl is dead. But everyone wants to cover all possibilities.

[sarasota]

I know. Very few consistencies. The PI sounds optimistic, now that the FBI is involved.

[monkeywrench]

I know. I'm getting ulcers being "tolerant" at SM. This place is sanity! I just don't want him running V_N off. He's been really good on these threads.

This discussion about step-parents/children is very interesting and all, but would it be okay if we had that battle another day? I know people have strong feelings about it, but I really hate to see the Natalee thread take this turn. I respect all the views and I so have one myself, but it just seems out of place here. Hoping not to get smacked!.......

[Rippersnapper]

Natalee left her phone in the hotel room.

[nuntukamen]

doesn't it seem likely that a million dollar reward for a live natalee is going to get evil minds thinking that instead of a fistfull of little bills, like one might get in a gas station or convenience store stickup, they might as well just kidnap a vacationing american female and go for the big bucks? anyway, it has in the past (south america, middle east, parts of europe under seige, etc)
...ah well, at least they would be encouraged to keep the victim alive

[sarasota]

There you go being a step ahead! That's a real possibility.

[TexKat]

Nancy Grace also said that "we are waiting on the results of the DNA testing on the hair and duck tape." So where did the results saying that "it is not Natalee's hair on the duck tape" come from? The Aruba LE??

On Larry King Susan Candiotti just stated that there has been no word from Holland or from the FBI on the strands of hair or the duct tape.

[jdm]

"The gardner was hot..."

No kidding!

(SORRY!)

[Rippersnapper]

I think the duct tape is a rabbit trail.

Yeah, it seems to be a nothing.

[spectre]

OK..so do we know if the Domino player was an inmate? And we are to believe that he held onto this information till now, till his gardener decided to step forward himself? Didn't stop him in jail.

One question leads to another for me. This really has been explained well at all. Hard to picture.
