Since when is being called a "Pimp" a compliment?

Site Wins Right to Dub Famed Stuntman 'Pimp'

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - "Motorcycle daredevil Evel Knievel cannot sue a Web site that published a photo of him with two women above a caption reading "You're never too old to be a pimp," a U.S. appeals court ruled on Tuesday.

The term "pimp" was probably intended as a compliment, the court said. But Knievel said, "What good is law in the United States of America if five or six goddamn bimbos are going to rule against it?"

The Montana native sued after ESPN, a subsidiary of Walt Disney Co., published a photo of the famed stunt driver at the Action Sports and Music Awards in 2001 with his arms around his wife and a second young woman."

When a Montana Disctrict Court and the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals says so.

Oh, and one of the women he had his arm around was his wife.

Personally, I think I would do my damndest to find out who that writer was and take him on a trip back in time, when men resolved things just a tad differently...
