am i misreading M's shoe / boot size as 8 "E"?
i didn't know women's shoe widths are so designated....especially as she appears to be slender.

I wondered that also when I seen it posted last night.. On the ID Show, it has a home video of her during Thanksgiving with Billy in 2003.. This would be what, 2mnths & 2weeks before she disappeared?? She didnt really look "slender" in that video.. While watching the show & seeing the pictures used in it, I didnt understand why the pix & the video showed a whole different looking woman..

Maybe its just me, but those pix shown & the home video shown, shows 2 different styles & they didnt look the same.. Maybe the pix were all from HS (maybe 1 from WP) & the video was years later?? Idk

I thought the same thing, just re-quoting the article.

Thank f**kn god I don't know who you are in real life. Nothing worse than a rambler.
Repeating your point over & over does not make it anymore valid.

I just had to bring this one forward again; Short, sweet and correct, not to mention pretty damned funny as well. ;)

Tang,
Not sure why you posted this, but I have to say, Love it! I do it in E major...Simple one four five-- E A D. I do alternate the D for d7 and the A for a7 to jazz it up a little. If you use the E pentatonic major scale, long or short, and add the blue notes, making it similar to a blues scale when playing lead over it, it kind of gives it that early Delta flavor. I bet Robert Johnson would have had an awesome interpretation of this if it was around when he was Juking.. ; )

Wow, where are the critics when you need them. I have to confess, I made a blatant mistake in this post. A one four five in the key of Emajor would include the Bmajor not the D...So, one can substitute the B7 for the Bmajor as opposed to the d7 in the five position and jazz it up a little....Damned it's hard to have to point out my own non factual Trolling, but, in the end, it's the right thing to do.. ; )

hmmm...idk, either. still, i've always recognized her in images to be consistently similar.

Bobby,

You really do project your buttocks talking issues here on people that are willing to do the research you refuse to do. Bald face lie; See colloquial use. Bare faced, bold faced and bald faced. The interesting thing here is that, you're statement, in which you were accused of being a "bald faced liar" is indeed aptly described.. I do like your Dos Passos, stream of consciuosness approach to your writing, but I must say, it should be prefaced as such, as in Dos' case with his Amercan trilogy, the critics will tear you apart. I hope you are able to publish your cantos soon and not languish away in some foreign prison until it becomes outdated though! Ah, the heady day's of the left bank when we were all starving and hung out with Gertrude and Alice and could borrow great Lit. From Sylvia beaches little lending library...

Exactly where did Wowzer exhibit "lack of understandig/compassion" (your term) in her information about protection dogs not being registered as service dogs? You go on to tell us how your girlfriend needs the dog as a therapy dog ... but you didn't tell us that in your initial post about your girlfriend's dog, you indicated she had the dog for protection which doesn't translate automatically to being a situation that requires the reader to sense a need for "understanding/compassion ".
While I'm at it, knowing as many combat veterans as I do, it always rather tickles my funnybone how many people claim to have PTSD over things that didn't actually happen.

MY god advocate, I can't believe this post you made.

Something that didn't happen?! So you're implying that because this guy didn't actually steal her it didn't happen? Now THIS post exhibits a serious lack of compassion, my god. Just what exactly does you name advaocate even mean then? What or who are you advoacting for?
Just because this sick fuck didn't actually steal her and she's not missing or dead right now means it didn't happen? Your post sickens me.
Its interesting because according to the state of Mass something happened because the guy is curently sititng upstate in prison for what he did. Your post is just horrible.

Its funny because being the age that I am I know more than a couple peole who've served in both iraq and afghanistan, many of them suffereing from PTSD. What are you saying that you need to go to war to get PTSD??? Have you ever looked up or researche ANYTHING involving PTSD? WHat a horrible post you made.

I was talking about how wowzer clearly has no understanding of how the national service dog registry works. In my original post I said that she has a trained protection dog that is also registered as a service animal so it can go anywhere she goes, which is true. Wowzer's post just showed a total lack of knowledge on the subject and was basically just total bullshit,

YOUR postis just simply horrendous, I can not beleve that you wrote that. So only women who actually get abducted or raped have the right to get PTSD?? ONLY women who actally get abducted have the right to be efffected from it years later? now THAT is a complete lack of understanding and compassion, total hardcore lack of any compassion at all. Maybe you can go visit the guy in prison and tell him how he shouldn't be there because it didn't happen?
You people make me sick! I never expected to see such a horrible post from you advocate. And exactly who are you an advocate for? She didn't actually get abducted so it didn't happen, what a iidiculously stupid comment.

And for the recod, someone can get PTSD from ONE event that makes them fear for their life, go do some research into PTSD; you don't need to be in a war to get PTSD!! Go do some research on the matter because you look really stupid in that post! Who are you avocating for? Men that abuct women or something??

It's not just you emmett. Most of the pictures they used on her missing poster are over a year old. THey chose pics from WP and even one from Highschool which is really werd considering the fact that you are supposed to use the most current photos available when trying to locate a missing loved one.
And you're also right about her not being as slender as she was in the pics that were released.
Look at the pics the fmily provied, oonce is from when she was at WP, and the rest seem pretty old too. You can recognize her obviously, but she does look somewhat different. We had a rather lengthy discussion about this last spring; it's not just you, you are totally correct.

HUH??

Why exacty are you even on this forum?? I've seen you bring a total of zero to the table as far as anything useful.
What is your purpose of being her? ONly to talk shit?? Really strange that someone would choose to sit her all day just trying to trash on other posters and not even discuss the topic at hand. You should be ashamed of yourself, you and the rest of you band of misfit trolls REALLY need to get a life

I agree that the red truck was unknown to her and on the prowll but as for the rag, why would she put it there to stop joyriders? As far as she knew the car wasn't driveable, which is why she left the car. If she thought someone could take it for a joyride ten she coul've just drove it away herself. here was no need for her to stay at the accident scene.

She may well have thought the Saturn was drivable and was in the glove compartment and then the trunk looking for something to cut the airbags when Red Truck came along and offered to ferry her back into town. He could have said, "I'll give you a lift, we'll get the car towed tonight and tomorrow you can look into having the airbags replaced". Something like that...

So, she (in that moment) presumes they're coming back shortly and leaves her toiletries, jewelry and overnight bag in the trunk of the Saturn. It's possible she was on tenterhooks after crashing her dad's Toyota and wanted to ensure her ride wasn't stolen (it had some trade-in value) and perceived the rag would be a reasonable theft protection tool.

It's been written that FM told her to use the rag if the tailpipe was smoking. It's probable he told her to be careful, that a rag could cause a car to stall and she concluded putting it in the tailpipe would prevent someone from nicking the Saturn and her belongings.

you may be right; i might not have been as observant.

To me, the pictures on the lost posters very much resemble the latest photo of Maura from late December, 2003. It's the snap taken at a local eatery with her gal-pals, and she looks fabulous.

scroll, scroll, scroll...equal opportunity disrespect is hosed down on topix posters. i am especially affronted on behalf of Advocator, though i trust she will simply consider the source.

can anyone imagine this guy being called up for jury duty? oh, my.

honestly, I am actually bummed out about Bob's demise. I know he used to get a little racy and swear now and again, but as I once posted, I always respected his knowledge and passion. This Troll that has stolen his Moniker has absolutely destroyed his integrity and has become alarmingly abusive to the woman on this thread. As myself and someone else recently stated, the real Bob Jenkins had this singularly refreshing ability to admit when he was wrong, sometimes even in mid post.
It is my sincere hope that the real Bob Jenkins is blissfully playing frisbee in a park somewhere with his dog and has no clue that he is being trolled by this group that conspires to steal monikers.. ; )

Maybe they just didnt have better newer pix then.. I dont wanna argue.. I can say that in comparing the photos is night & day.. In the "newest" one, her jaw line has filled out & her facial shape is taking on what she would have appeared more as an adult rather than the 2 pix, 1 of her running & 1 that Renner uses.. Her face has not filled in all the way in those two pix.. Idc bout her looks, I just thought maybe better to show her as an adult but like I said, maybe they didnt have the pix..

I have a great argument for her traning at WP, her military skills she would have recieved from there, her lack of "extreme training" at the time of disappearance because of her injury, the sheer magnitude of how hard it is to get into WP (I know, I wanted to go there), military codes of conduct unbecoming, of maybe why she might have been asked to leave.. Etc etc..

basically my points are prolly moot & I suppose most aspects have been discussed in the last 9yrs & the 99.9% position I take would lead to arguing & I dont want to argue anymore.. Its stressfull & I dont have the "thick skin" needed & I dont want to engage anyone.. I think I have good points but they are more than likely Moot!!

The red truck on BHR was seen within a few minutes of the 911 call by FW.

The red ford F250 w/ temp NH plates that was stopped at 5:26 am was owned by a man from Nashua.
