Which Eighties Super Model is Ibram's Mom?
 

I say Natasha Kinski.

Iman

Paulina Porizkova. It explains his music knowledge. Look who she married.

Could be Christie too...Billy Joel, and all.

yeah... or maybe Grace Jones;)

You know, the '80s were good.

Based on that honor roll, I'd say you're on to something there.

Just for the record, is Ibram's mom really an 80's supermodel or are we just guessing based on his cute gender-bender pic?

Have I ever started a thread based completely on speculation?

My humblest apology.

According to Google, this is Taiwan's supermodel:

Her name is 林志玲.

Unlike most American males, I seem to lack the built-in fetish for Asian women, but in this case I... I...

Sorry JJ

According to that link, she's 33 years old! Sure doesn't look it...

She's pretty damn cute.

Actually I feel a little rude for even speculating about this. It's sorta weird. Fame is messed up, supermodel fame is probably triply so.

Nevertheless, she would probably have been brought up in the US or Britain to be able to recall that amount of classic rock trivia.

Ibby, you have anything to say about this? Are you cool with it?

If it were Paulina would that make Ric Ocasek his dad? How cool would that be?

US or Britain

Or Australia, I should add.

I feel more rude now

Did I cross a line? If so feel free to squeegie this thread off the page. I just thought I was being silly since Ibram is so in touch with 80's pop culture...

I think he's got a sense of humor, he's just tied up with the back to school thing. Besides, If he doesn't know we love him at this point, he needs a kick in the ass. :D

I think his Mom must be pretty cool, too. You know, helping with the trivia thing and everything, plus being a, never-know-what's-next, military wife.

If I'm wrong, a quick PM from him and the whole thread will evaporate.

I thought Ibram's Mom was Alex Trebek.

No silly it's, who's mom did I think Alex Trebeck is? :p

Wouldn't that be double jeopardy?

Whoa, I was (and still am) in Hualian for the weekend for the AVG/Fifth Squadron Reunion. I even met one of the only people to ever fly in three wars!

And dont worry, all I can do is LAUGH at this thread. If you'd ever seen my mother you'd know why.

Ibram, I want you to know that I forgive you for being a cheating bastard at music trivia.

I just want to say that I have been constantly impressed by Ibram's maturity, insight and generally spot-on Cellar attitude, all from so young a lad. This kid is, I think, someone who we might be able to trust with our pension funds and social security accounts someday. Hell, we have middle-aged, allegedly mature members who don't comport themselves with half the aplomb that Ibram does.

You go, kid!

That's because Ibby's a fed who came here trolling for rightwing fundamentalist minister politicians who were looking to hook up with teenage androgynes over the 'net. When he didn't find any here (thank god, and UT) he decided he liked it here and has yet to do a rocksteady.

Just ask Beestie about the fed thing.

And his mom is Debbie Harry. I thought everyone knew that.

Then that would make his Dad Dagwood.

Blondie Bumstead is a BABE !!!

Meh - cute gender-bender picture I managed to miss!

Cheryl Tiegs - or was she 70's?
