Foo - New avatar suggestions for Koffee Brown!!

I figured this is where the roadie's all hang out so even though it's not cycling specific we could show our love for Ms. Brown and post a few pix or links for which great black woman she should honor next by using her as a profile pic.

i was gonna suggest Regina Jacobs (the 40yr old track star) but while i was looking for pix i saw an article that she had tested positive for THG and was involved in some other unsavory stuff that an upstanding member of our community like KB could never condone.

i was thinking maybe tennis star and social justice icon Althea Gibson...

I like Condoleeza. I share her politics. Keep her...

Maya Angelou.

Corretta Scott King

Winnie Mandela

Rosa Parks

Sojourner Truth

Harriet Tubman

do you eat alot of fiber or something?

Heck, even Oprah!

man, am i bored...
san diego news anchor, lisa lake.

Nobel peace prize winner Wangari Maathai

Strange Emily.

Holly Robinson-peete or Claire Huxtable. I know it's an example of my primitive mind, but I picture people as their avatars, and it took me awhile to figure out it was Condoleeza instead of Gollum-in-a-dress, but probability-wise, Koffee's got to be much finer!

Please Koffee loose Condi, it's hurts just see her and I'm always interested in what you write!

(Can't work the stupid posting thingy...how do you do the equivalent of <img src="blahblah">Zoe</img>? )

Winnie Mandela?
You've got to be kidding. Her ex husband may garner respect
(deservedly so) but winnie is nothing more than a criminal
hanging on to a great mans coat tails.
Lets see, she thought Moketsie Stompie Seipei (14 yo boy) was
getting too popular and a police informer so she had him killed.
she has been convicted of fraud and robbery, and was very well
known for necklacing her opposition. Nice lady.

Was not Condi the one who ignored the warning for 9-11 as outlined in the 9-11 Committee report...Regular guy..A heroine of mine is Soujouner Truth..Great suggestion....
ANyone who wants to take a flower to Sougouner's grave, she is barried in Battle Creek, Mich.

Come on, people: Angela Bassett.

Winnie Mandela?
etc.
Marty

OK, I'll withdraw Winnie Mandela, but if you say one word against Harriet Tubman, I'll tear ya to shreds.

How 'bout Ruby Dee?

Please Koffee loose Condi, it's hurts just see her...

Huh? Did she dump you for a better biker?

Weezie?

That looks like DJ Jazzy Jeff in the background.

Hmm, the Wizard of Oz didn't go like this.
I want to see just one little pic of the gal behind the curtain...

How about a "real" picture of Koffee?

Koffee isn't a person... she's an embodiment of many people on the forums. Don't you guys know that by now? Sheesh! ;)

I had to laugh when I came online and saw this. I had a kind of down day. Thanks guys!

I haven't thought of an avatar yet, but Condi's out of here. It was more of a joke than anything. Time for me to find a picture that works for me. I can say at some point this year, I'm sure my picture will go up on bikeforums. Let's call that one of my resolutions of 2005! Until then, suffer with whatever I choose! ;)

Happy new year to all... you guys really get me laughing sometimes!

Koffee

Maya Angelou.

Maya Angelou has my vote! I love to listen to her speak! And to hear her recite here poetry is AWSOME!

I kinda like the picture of that really hot woman that was on there before...

Because of the way she shut down that last thread, I offer you....

Beyonce?

Vanessa Williams.

I think I have one! I just need to find that pic of Lil' Kim's nip.

Koffee

That shouldn't be too hard :)

Which particule nip were you looking for? Really they are all over the place ;)

The one from the award show, silly!

Koffee

Yeah, I searched for it and couldn't find it. Found a bunch more...but not that one...

seems some people can't tell the diff between janet jackson and Lil kim...very odd...

I haven't thought of an avatar yet, but Condi's out of here. It was more of a joke than anything.
KoffeeThank insert deity of choice here

That shouldn't be too hard :)

Was that an intentional pun?

nope.

What about Whoopi Goldberg?

I have to vote for my favorite woman on television: Tyra!!

The one from the award show, silly!

Halfspeed, you HAD to know I was kidding... that girl is a skank! Certainly not avatar-worthy... ;)

Koffee: congrats on new avatar. Now, uhh, who is it?

Koffee, as usual, your own mysterious avatar selection beats out all the suggestions.

Koffe's new avatar...A guess- Josephine Baker?

My vote goes to Dr. Mae C. Jemison (MD) (http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/jemison-mc.html). She was the first black female astronaut (STS-47 Spacelab-J - September 12-20, 1992).
