It is what it is. I work in a field where outting myself would be hazardous to say the least. For years I avoided images of myself. However, I did finally make the choice a month or two ago to put a few pics and vids up. I tried to hid my face and distinguishing stuff as best as possible. Seeing truly is believing as they say. I have lived both sides of this issue myself. You cannot fault a man for hiding an illegal secret. You cannot fault a skeptic for doubting what cannot be proven/seen.
Bottom Line you don’t have to post in BDE’s log if you don’t want to or think he’s not the real deal. I’ve never seen a picture of the man myself but have traded enough PM’s with him to get a sense for the guy. He’s legit in my book.
No, I don’t beat around the bush. I just needed to make sure my ducks were all in a row.
What I mean is that he may not be as genuine as he appears. I was looking for something entirely different when I noticed he can’t keep certain aspects of his life straight. In other words, I believe him to be a liar. By reading these posts you should see that opinion has nothing to do with this. It’s concrete.
He’s obviously been untruthful. Small lies but it does reflect on his character.
I’m not here to only call him a liar. I’ve been a little hard on those who believe him to be untruthful regarding his stats. So I just want to apologize to those people. You’re, perhaps, more on the right track than I am.

Excellent point… I think this sums up this discussion quite well.
Maybe BDE has been making tiny lies about his age, oh well, I did at first too.
Whether he is as jacked as he says he is or not doesn’t matter to me that much, from the times I have PM’d with him he is a very knowledgeable guy about AAS and training.
Honda Accords are pretty common cars. But how many '91s are even on the road anymore given their age? They’re so broke down by now that it’s a rare sight. It’s a tall order for two roomies to be driving exact same cars of that particular year.
I have to agree with AS about his age. He doesn’t know what it is. As simple as it should be, his birthday is confusing. It came in June but a month later he’s coming up on another? How many birthdays does he have in a calender year?
It’s okay to keep certain things secret. But don’t outright lie; especially on this site. Hell, one guy thought I was a cop because I talked about PO boxes. I’m not saying he is one, but if a cop were to ever post here he should follow in BDE’s footsteps. He sure has gained a lot of trust from people.
Speaking of cops I dislike them. I got a ticket once. But I guess it’s okay since they only caught me once. I must have sped at least 1000 times by now.

LOL, a ‘tiny lie’ about his age. I’m sorry that just does not compute. Yes someone with low moral character might lie about theire age to boost it a bit to ‘pass scrutiny’ here (though god knows why), but this guy doesn’t seem to know WHAT his age is.
A liar can’t be trusted. End of story.
And no offence KVA, but who are you to judge knowledgeability about AAS. You are about 4 jabs into your first cycle.
You know, I liked the guy (BDE) but now I don’t know what to think, and that makes me uneasy about him.[/quote]
Yeah sorry I wasn’t trying to come off as saying he’s an expert. I just meant he didn’t seem like a complete fraud, either.

ROFLMAO!!
I am actually laughing out loud at that one! lololol!
I have PM’ed BDE on a number of occasions… i highly doubt he is a cop - but i am not entirely convinced that everything he says is true - and he knows that i am not convinced too, as i have expressed as much to him.
I know that his attitude is - “if you dont believe me, thats your problem” well yes and no. I get the point, but at the end of the day, if i dont believe him and he ISNT telling the truth, then he is a liar, and that means he isnt what he says he is.
I am starting to suspect that he is the same person as DOG though - THAT seems to make the most sense here at this time.
The thing is, if any of us are going to expect anybody to believe such outlandish claims - they need to be either backed up (cortes with his show, Saps with his freaky strength, Gerds with his fucking natural ability) OR the person in question needs to be a little more understanding that someones ‘word’ means a little less than fuck all here for the most part - and not expect people to believe every internet claim that is made daily.
i can hear the sound of crickets and tumbleweed rolling in the wind…
bde’s flat desolate apart from a sobbing wife and two weeping children.
the 91 honda accord hauling ass through the desert carrying 500lbs of competition ready young bodybuilders getting the hell out of T-Nation kicking themselves that they’d ever clicked on that link…
bde now slumped in the shower of a cheap motel the water trickling down his 3% of bodyfat crying whilst dog rubs his skin with an exfoliating glove dipped in bleach trying to wash away the pain. furiously checking his blackberry for updates.
dog limply holding bde’s hand stroking his brow telling him it will be ok. as long as they make it to the hotdog eating contest but there down to their last 20 dollars and they think the hondas out of gas…
LOL
