Mum: post #413 contains the neighborhood map ...
here are my random thoughts re that/other recent topics
here/in NCD thread:
"freddy's house was near vdS house" =
cannot recall who said it/who provided the so-called map
but it was mid-summer 2005/before freddy's arrest ...
for sure it was in the forum/not the FP
and the poster/whoever it was seemed legit:
the two houses were diagonal from each other thru the backyards plus a couple/few empty lots ...
they said it was a short walk/just a few minutes
the recently posted google map and hand-drawn map
show that the houses are diagonal from each other
and appear to be w/in a few minutes walking distance ...but there are a couple streets to be traveled
(width-wise rather than length-wise)
in getting from one house to the other ...
which is the main difference from the original info:
the two properties (#19/#39F)
aren't linked thru backyards + empty lots
my teenage friends and I quite often got away w/
out the bedroom window/thru the back gate/over the fence
when we wanted to pull off our version of "up to no good" ...
which BTW was nothing major
and didn't include death/disappearance
if mountain girls could fool the parents so could island boys
especially if the parents/PvdS/elders didn't need to be fooled
:::shrugs:::

"freddy was staying at vdS house on the night in question" =
I never heard that until freddy was arrested in august.
if it came out before then I totally missed it ...
I remember thinking WTF? that night
then again, maybe that's why the proximity of the two houses
had been discussed a month or so earlier
what's up w/ the conflicting stories re freddy's overnighter?
after the august arrests jossy(?)/MSM reported that freddy said:
freddy stayed at vdS home/didn't go out that night ...
JvdS came home/said he'd met an american girl/no sex/yawn
but in the JvdS book version and/or freddy's PV
freddy said JvdS told him about the american girl the next day
so it appears that freddy had originally alibi-ed JvdS
on the night in question ... yes/no ... ?
GMAFB: freddy stayed home at Sloot dump/JvdS partied at CnC's:
I'm not as think as they dumb I am, LOL
I've never read the FP in depth re freddy's arrest/just the forum:
august 26/2005 FP posts now on my reading list
_ _ _ _ _
"TV reporting vs print/website reporting" =
american MSM felt like they were burned/purposely misled
during the confession/no confession weekend in june
there were some FP posts re that situation, IIRC ...
someone/checkme(?) said to expect that talking heads
would be saying things/reporting developments
that would not appear in print/on news outlet websites
which is another reason why those w/ TV access
would post what was being reported for those w/o TV access:
perhaps it would not be available elsewhere later on
that's why the old posts are invaluable:
some links don't work anymore and/or they never contained
what was being said on-air
hmmmm ... wondering now if there are posts referring to
"the" Charles Croes interview ...
which so many say was heavily edited/revised ... ?
_ _ _ _ _
"JvdS 'aced' his exam the next day" =
from anita's mouth to bondia's/Renfro's ear ...
a spelling test maybe/there weren't any exams the next day
the may/june newsletter which provided the schedule
of the various AP/SAT exams was available at the ISA site
for quite awhile/a long while ...
none were listed the first week after Natalee disappeared
all the major exams took place the following week ...
no doubt a big reason why JvdS wasn't arrested until june 9:
he missed graduation but was available for his exams
I posted at a now-defunct site late winter/early spring 2006
where a dutchy was yammering re the "aced his exams" thingy
and so I posted the ISA schedule ... backatcha!
kept asking him/her for a response re the exam schedule
and got nothing but ignored ...
would respond re other subjects but nada/zip/zero re the exams
_ _ _ _ _
I lost a huge document awhile back/32,000+ KB ...
the first few inches of text were intact
but the rest of the doc looked like this: /////////////////
tried to restore it/asked lotsa people about it ...
a tech-savvy friend said the doc was virus-corrupted
and that's why the text disappeared
I'm so frustrated/I could bite someone ...
I lost TONS of posts/links/etc re the topics above/much more ...
bummer, going by memory alone
