The only thing I know about you is what you I've read on SI. You claim to be Emile Vidrine and to have a campus ministry which I don't believe to be a paid postion - especially since you can take off a summer campaigning for David Duke. I surmise you are not a working stiff. I recall you stating somewhere long ago that your wife worked and was a scientist of some sort.

Therefore I seem correct in saying that you aren't the "breadwinner" of your household. This is usually a distinctly uncomfortable position for a man to be in. Where is my lie?

You have no grounds for accusing me of either lying or cowardice.

Once again you pretend there is something deceitful or cowardly about the use of an online handle. That's nonsense. Almost everyone on SI does so including your friends Thomas M and Stormrider. You would use an alias too if you had more sense.

I'm assuming for the sake of argument that you actually are named Emile Vidrine - although the use of that or any name on line doesn't actually prove that the name is correct. A good alias would be a fake common name. I know Vidrine is as common in Louisiana as Smith or Johnson - I regularly communicate with a fellow employee there named Vidrine - one of several with my employer.

I've said my name is Bruce and I live in the Houston area. What difference would it make to you to know my last name? Why would you possibly want to know unless you intend to mount some campaign of telephone harassment?

BTW there is at least one other person in this area who shares my name - or at least there was a few years ago - I used to get phone calls for him occasionally. One other reason to use an online alias - not only don't I want my family to be harassed, I wouldn't want to expose others who share my name to this either.

So Emile, exactly why do you want to know my family name?

" think that was largely on the mark."

It's occurred to me that the bitterness of your response is one more indication that was in fact pretty accurate.

Wonder what you'd do if I posted by name and number? Anyway, I have three reasons not to provide it online. And one of 'em is IMing me to go pick her up right now.
