Time on their hands makes me wonder

This entry on Kris' Twitter from just an hour ago (4pm EST) which made me stop and think:  "We did a case in West Chester, PA and now we are somewhere in VA for a case! ;)".  Interesting.  Both Kris and Amy's Twitter both gave them about 5 hours for their drive to VA which is fine.  Probably somewhere mid-VA.  What made me stop and think was, they were there way ahead of Jason and Grant who are still in RI.  I understand down time but doesn't this give everyone a lot of time on their hands for things to happen?  You know what they say about idle hands…..  Curious if it's just me or not.

Well, they probably do need a bit of time in between, it's not like they are on a tour where the _only_ stops are places they investigate. I'm not sure who would be the "idle hands" in this case? Kris and Amy since they are in VA ahead of time? I'm sure they'll just spend their time twitting rather than something nefarious related to the case.

Agreed Nosfer but if they have that much down time and are at the next destination, why wouldn't they do research for the show?   Maybe that's just me.  If I was in charge of investigating a location, I'd be curious about the claims and would like someone to be investigating and checking the area and local libraries, etc.  But then again, I'm not GH. Smile  I guess I've just gotten too suspicious as I think it gives a little wiggle room for setting up findings, etc.  Now that they are on Twitter I can't imagine the next 24 +hours of nonsense.  Ugh!  I guess it's me. Undecided

Just because they don't post about doing research, doesn't mean they aren't (not saying they actually ARE lol) Their fans probably are more interested in the other types of posts rather than a boring "we are at the library" post.

Also sounds like they may have just gotten there, in which case a bit early for any of that.

And the other possibility…all this twittering could be a nice big red herring. Look what is being discussed here now instead of the cases and flaws…their asinine comments. The twit thread has gone to 8 pages which is a pretty good number for a thread on here. Apparently second only to the Grant List (11 Pages) and that one was started a lot earlier.

If we start with wild speculation, we fall right into their hands and our credibility takes a hit. It looks like we are grasping at anything they do and finding something "Wrong" with it or something out of place. An "out to get them on everything" mentality which we need to avoid. Grant isn't the only one that can cry wolf too many times.

Excellent points Nosfer.  Got to get back to the real purpose – the show itself.  The rest is fluff even if there are kernels of truth.  We shouldn't be drawn off the subject.  Thanks for the reality check. Laughing

Edit:  P.S.  If J's post is correct, he's taking this week off so I hope they are enjoying Virginia.  It's a beautiful state.  The mountains are incredible and the Virginia beaches are really nice.  Probably now that I think about it, with traffic they could be in Manassas.
