Hmmm, earring, 4 necklaces, bracelet, flashy belt buckle, outlandish clothes... yeah, pimp works.

You are both right.

Easy Reader wore jeans and a vest.

But Morgan Freeman played another character on Electric Company named Mel Mounds the DJ, and he dressed like a pimp. The picture above in post #15 is Mel Mounds, not Easy Reader.

That is just plain nuts. Today that would be rated R though because it was implied that she smoked. btw- nsfw

Oh, thank God!! I wish we could see context and spirit of comment in these posts. So much confusion could be avoided. Imigo, when I read ~'what, because he's black', all I heard in my head was Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson jumping on me because I said 'pimp'. "He looks like a pimp" was intended solely as a humorous comment on his slight resemblance of Easy Reader (and his (Rudy's) slight resemblance to a pimp). The comment about your username was just a dig at you in response to the dig at me that I may be racist. Apologies and all that. And if you didn't get the whole Velvet Jones thing (I also sometimes forget we all aren't in the U.S.), he was an Eddie Murphy character from Saturday Night Live. He was a pimp trying to get into a straight line of work, as seen here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZVnve5wG0A . Again, no animosity intended, just a chuckle.

Also: I apparently blocked Mel Mounds from my mind. I have no recollection of him at all.

I certainly wasn't being serious either Gravdigr.
Although I am still awaiting an explanation from Imigo re his name
