    So... I was on a plane... (relates to TE!)

    I was on a plane reading a book. My bookmark was a Team Estrogen post-it-note. I had gotten some when I ordered something.

    The airline stewardess walks by and sees it on my open tray.

    She looks at it and reads outloud, "Team Estrogen". Then she starts to giggle and says, "Is that some pre-menopausal softball team?". (Mind you, this lady was probably 45+. She wasn't a twenty-something year old.)

    I just kind of stared at her and was like, "No".

    Not sure what else I said.

    So, there's my funny story for the day.
    "Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather, to skid in broadside thoroughly used-up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming: WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!!"

    lol that is really funny.
    i'm still wondering about the guy who found the introduction thread, put his pictures up and then never posted again. He must have figured out what Estrogen meant!

    don't mean to be a smart-azz but reading is a big step

    I would have given her a lengthy detailed explanation.

    "Team Estrogen is an internet site that sells clothing for athletically inclined women. Most, but not all of us are cyclists. We also participate in a lively and intelligent discussion forum and for some of us Team Estrogen is our 'team". We even have team jersey's. Would you like to see a picture of my dog?"

    By this time she's feeling a uneasy and very likely apologetic.
