"Scuzzcrack" & "Pimpmobile"

[Mullins, Bill]

I think, that rather than saying he owned the word "pimpmobile", he was
saying he _owned_ a pimpmobile.  My mental picture of Wilson is now one
of the "Huggy Bear"/Antonio Fargas sort, or maybe the "gentleman of
leisure" played by Garret Morris in the SNL sketch, "Fred Garvin, Male
Prostitute".

Wilson is truly a renaissance man.
