		<description>&quot;As black men we should be building a nation of strong black leaders, not a nation of super energized, drunk pimps.&quot;

Now, that&apos;s what I call a quote.</description>

		<description>warning....if you decide to fix the second link and take a look....there&apos;s audio, that i must say, though it rudely interupted some hendrix playing on my speakers, went well with the site....well....for a half a minute at least.

looks to me like the rev was drinkin&apos; some of that pimp juice to get even noticed for something like this......ya&apos; know...&lt;i&gt;whatever you think people are really taking to you for, that&apos;s kinda like your juice. Whatever you using to win with right now, that&apos;s your juice--that&apos;s your pimp juice, so keep pimping.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

yo go rev</description>

		<description>Can&apos;t wait for pimp to be used correctly one day. Was it around &apos;98 that it became a &quot;fad&quot; word. See moms saying my toddler is a &quot;pimp&quot; now. Sure this is just product, and like it describes advertisements perfectly these days, pimp&apos;in the products. But please don&apos;t call a child a pimp when today&apos;s society thinks pimps are criminals. They&apos;ll go work for some major advertising firm when they grow up.</description>

Yaright.  Know what&apos;s stimulating about guarana?  Caffeine.

Is it alcoholic?  Doesn&apos;t sound like it from the above.

But it does sound damn stupid.</description>

		<description>Ideal for demanding sports and intense workouts? Like beating up ho&apos;s and stomping cheap bastards who don&apos;t pay for getting their sex on?

Anyway, Pimp Juice sounds like about the last thing I would ever want to drink. I just wonder how Nelly got them to vollunteer to be juiced, I hear that can leave a rash.</description>

		<description>I can not believe that nobody has made a Pimpsi Blue joke yet...

(and why didn&apos;t Nelly package his Pimp Juice in miniature malt .40 bottles? The &lt;a href=&quot;http://abacus.best.vwh.net/oro/oro3.gif&quot;&gt;ouroborosian&lt;/a&gt; inversion of the past  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cspinet.org/new/alcopop.html &quot;&gt;&quot;outrage&quot; over alcopops&lt;/a&gt; would have caused a memetic implosion, reducing Nelly&apos;s marketing team to an ultra-dense singularity of neon-green, apple juice flavored hype and bullshit. We can dream, though.

		<description>*giggle* I nearly fell out at the second link when the music started.

Anyway, I think its just a fine example of target and product marketing. Movies get drinks and cereals and happy meal toys. Why not a beverage for a song? How about a little pimp kids meal? Comes with one of 6 pimp action figures all with &quot;bitch slap action&quot;!
