Pimps and Hos


In just a few weeks several of us will be headed back to college for a reunion and anniversary celebration of the student newspaper: http://www.themaneater.com But it was a recent movie I watched (Hustle and Flow -- excellent, must see if you're an adult) and a comment on The Maneater reunion blog that got me to thinking about pimps and hos (does that have an "e"?)

Primarily it got me to thinking that we're not any of us unlike those specific professions. I love writing -- now I write for money. Does that make me a ho? And my editor a pimp? Hmmm. How about sales people? P.R. people? Definitely. Chefs? Mechanics? Maybe, just maybe.

Oh well, a comparison to think and laugh about as we go through our day.
