I just want to say....

[doc]

My husband just said what if there are some women on this site who might not be women! It really made me laugh. By the way he is a Fred!
A guy once suggested e shave he's legs to keep the ticks off of him, He said " Just what I need for my wife to complain about the stubble on my legs too".

There are some on this site who are men. One has openly admitted it although I can't recall his name. All men who are respectful, helpful, thoughtful and genuinely interested in the thread are more than welcome to participate.

Ladies,

I thoroughly enjoy coming to this board & love getting my daily giggle from your posts. The support you give to others is much appreciated & am thankful to have the opportunity to ask for help if needed.

One more thing..i just did a check *looks* and yup i'm a chick..

Yup - I just checked and I'm a girl, too. Yeah - I think most of the men that are so obsessed with Freds, fredosity, fredism, etc are probably OCPs themselves. It's not exactly a supportive environment over there like it is here.

ok, I'm thinking instead of us all checking ourselves and each other which is getting a little weird it's time to roll out the TE entrance exam!

It's multiple choice, there are no wrong answers!!
First question:

You win the sprint up Mt. Diablo, making the local "Fred" suffer. Do you:
a) flash a winning smile, wave and say "better luck next time sucker"
b) let him win the next one. We don't want to damage the fragile male ego, do we?
c) pull over, take out your Alien and completely overhaul his bike, he'll be faster next time.
d) ask him out.
e) ask if he has a stout, hard working, hairy brother (or sister-but maybe not the hairy requirement part on her)
f) all of the above.

F. All of the above! And I agree that all are welcome! As long as it doesn't get weird. I like tat we more less stick to the subjects at hand and when we don't I am sure a guy would stay out of it considering some of the things we have talked about.

Brandi "I am sure a guy would stay out of it considering some of the things we have talked about."

Ooooh, that's how we keep TE women only, just end each post with girl stuff. Probably keep out spam too.

Well then, I'm off to take some Estroven, the herbal peri & post menopausal supplement.

There, that'll fix 'em.

So, it's been a busy week and I haven't shaved my legs since last weekend - does that make me a Fred? Here's for the lurkers: Period, period, period!! There!

OK, the TE entrance exam question 2. Remember it's multiple choice, there are no wrong answers although some will make you a little bit suspect:
Next question:

You have a date who just might get to see your house tonight (if married/partnered the Queen of England is expected for dinner). Your house is a pigstye, but weather is grand and TE gals have invited you to ride.

Do you:
a) skip the ride and clean, it's cross training, right? we want to show the housecleaning potential.
b) tell the date (or Her Majesty) "this is what it looks like, get used to it. what are you? The Queen of England? Oh, yeah right"
c) Me clean? My ibot does that, let's ride
d) ride, and toss everything into the closet "let me put away your coat, nooooo not in there"

new tampons? pedals off doing the "don't have periods anymore" happy dance.

Trek,

What's this "clean" thing of which you speak? I have no knowledge.

And I can attest for Sydney_b. She is indeed female, and a fun one to have at your table on a lady's night out.

[Trek420]

while there are no wrong answers...ding-ding-ding-ding! We have a winner. MomOnBike passes the test

Is it getting hot in here, or just my hot flashes again?

MomOnBike is good company as well. Turns out we can both pedal and find our way home in the dark after margaritas.

And, this "clean" thing ... don't know much about it, except I saw a recommendation in the paper this morning to use a q-tip to clean the corners of your windows. I about snorted coffee right out my nose. If ever someone mentions the dirt in the corner of my windows, I'm going to ask how the heck they got in my house, then I'm going to put a cleat mark on their behind as I kick them out.
