I turn fifty-five today. One of my poorer sons drew a picture for me instead of giving me cash or clothes or a car or something. I guess I love him anyway though.

In celebration of my birthday, I have decided to give all of you readers a present (See, it’s real spiritual when I give YOU something on MY birthday.)

Click on the picture below (it’s smaller version of the drawing of me as the Pimp Punisher) and the browser will take you to a full sized image of the drawing.

Once you get there, you can, using a color printer, print off a copy of the picture.

Of course, before you print it off, I want you to send a love offering of $19.95 to:

Melvin’s Birthday Ministry
12356 Anathema Lane
Bowie, MD 20763

There is also a shipping and handling charge of $25.00.

And remember, in God we trust. Everybody else pays with a certified check, a money order, or cash.

Oh, if you use a black and white printer to get a copy of the picture, you should only send me a love offering of $10.00 and $25 S&H - same payment rules.

Have a blessed day.

Happy Birthday Mellie Mel. Oops, sorry I was having a 70’s flashback. Only the 50 something can relate to that. While they keep pimpin.. you just keep punishing.
Great costume, you might have to loose the tights though these church folks are so carnal. Watch out!!
Have fun–Be blessed.

Happy Birthday Melvin

The pimpers ususally say how to pay e.g by Credit Card, by a check in the mail , yada, yada.
You did not even mention methods of payment, could tell you are not a TRUE PIMP lol

Happy Birthday!!!! You’re one more year closer to meeting Jesus!!! (Wait, that may’ve come off a bit morbid…oh well, its true)

55, Chisled Body, In shape, got a cape, knows alot of the Word, A Superhero…..AND YA BLACK TOO???!! (Gottta keep it real, now…..though I like Batman n Superman, too many of the others don’t have the “Color” factor…..toO many of them that are white and too few representin’ for US Black Folk…You could count Blade, I guess, but then again, He’s a demon/vampire….and Green Lantern’s the Token Black Man in D.C….THE rEST MUST’VE DIED OUT BEFORE THE CREDITS ROLLED…)…..

Then again, I guess Batman could count too…He is the “Superman of the Hood” …..living rich, living large, fighting larger than life villians who like pimping free of charge….. kicking butt, crazy as a nut, and yet he has still has time to do community service. on the side…….

Guess you’ll have to do for now, though,…Be Praying for a SideKick for ya (Apart from Riki Tiki…He doesn’t have the tights or the cape)

Blessings…

before i send my money - i’d like to know where are the goggles? I mean since you are 85.. i mean 55, wouldn’t an older superhero still need some spectacles to see or are those contacts?

(MN: Special “seeing in the spirit” contacts. )

I wanted to take this time to join in with the pulpit-pimps community to wish you a most blessed and God favored Birthday! I trust that HE will continue to be gracious to you and your ministry in the days ahead.

Blessings Always!

Happy Birthday! You don’t write a day over 30 to me. I am saying that you write in a way that captures the attention of young people, and that is desperately needed. Thank you for your many hours of blogging to warn those who will listen about aberrant and heretical teachings in the church. You have been a source of inspiration, and you are linked to my blog. May the Lord bless you with all spiritual blessings in 2007. Remember, it is not Mohammed, Buddha, Confucius, nor New Age that saves. Jesus saves! Angela Lee Price, Jesus Saves Ministries.

Hey!!! Happy Birthday to my SuperMentor!!

Despite what has been written here, I am indeed the faithful sidekick, Rikki Tikki Tavi. I’m in charge of keeping the PimpMobile washed and gassed up,and the PimpPlane in flying condition.

Also, being caucasion myself, and humbly accepting my ordained role as sidekick, we strike a blow against racism everywhere.

THE PIMPMOBILE????!!! No you didn’t…..(that’s was funny, though….racial reconcilation, huh?)

From all the responses we’ve recieved about Bryant (and considering the…ummmmm…clown reinvisioning of how he looks), I’m guessing He’d be some version of the Joker, right?

Don’t know what I’d be, or even qualify for yet…….

“Sidekick”…..too soft of a word for you GaryV…….”Big Gun”, “weapon”, or “ammmo” would probably be better ones….(LOL)

Glad to see ya’ll got the “racial reconcilliation” thang going on……now ya’ll can fight from two fronts instead of one….but you may have some problems if Mel decides to stick it to the “Man”…

Blessings and much love, Brah

Hi Mrs. Mav,

Peeping in–trying to break away from this thing on the weekend–but I was bored–I agree that with the statement that this picture is carnal-as well as Eddie Long’s flexxes. But I guess I would want to know how the “ultra” conservative people feel about “what level” of carnality is acceptable. I think that because we live in the world, we are forced to accept some forms of carnality whether we reallt want to or not. I just think it is important for us to take a look at what we accept as being okay-while calling others out on it.

Have a great weekend as well–:-)

Comment by GaryV
2007-01-21 15:02:45

Then cease asking questions………as you promised you would. Or is it only YOU that gets to ask questions on this MB??

If you don’t want your errata challenged, keep it between “You and God” like you said you would. If you continue to do otherwise, I will make a point of highlighting your inanities.

Comment by Melvin Jones
2007-01-26 08:21:37

Seems like the choice is on you. You keep choosing to make statements and then fall back to “That’s between God and me” when someone questions you on them. The point I believe GaryV is making is that if something is between you and God, keep it between you and God and out of the comment section. Once you state something, it’s no longer between you and God. (Between you and God means only you and God know about it.

If you make a comment, be willing to defend it - - or don’t make the comment. If you persist in the behaviour people will have little reason to respond to anything you say since you are going to duck the responsibility of having said it (i.e. That’s between me and God.)

Whatever–too busy right now-come to any conclusion you wish-I’m out of here..

I will say this–you both give me entirely too much power-and thanks for the confidence booster-it really is that serious
(MN: You’re welcome. I guess I keep hoping you will actually carry on a rational discussion. My bad. )

Watch your news…

Last comment for the week:

Are there some out there who would think that this picture is carnal because it shows (as my grandmother used to say)-”a half naked” man whose drawers are clearly showing??

Just wondered what you all’s thoughts are on this. Personally, I see nothing to trip over but then again, what would someone say if one of those you all call pimps were dressed like this?

Righter signing off…

hi righter,
of course it’s carnal, and eddie long gets pretty close to it, flexing n’ all w/ his muscle shirts. but the whole showing off your underwear should be strictly reserved for the wifey or the men’s locker room. that’s what i had to tell my hubby when he tried to wear his superhero outfit outside one day…….
the nerve!
anyhoo, have a good weekend girl.

I have been lurking on your site for a couple of weeks now, have drunk liberally from the clean spring water of your expositions (not to be confused with Miracle Spring Water, copyright Peter Popoff) and commend you for doing the scut work our pseudo-Christian “leaders” in the nationwide halls of pimpery no doubt consider blashphemous against them. Anyway, my birthday present for you is a new handle…catchphrase…title…you decide. Here it is: “Melvin Jones: I’m Ole Anthony Without The Self-Loathing!” My fee for this new handle I’ve bestowed upon ya? Merely $19.95, plus $25.00 for shipping and handling. You’re welcome…KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!

Happy birthay and many more blessings. Hmmm, just curious- if I send in a larger “love offering” than your requested amount, can I please get a ride in the pimpmobile? How about a sigt seeing tour in the pimp plane around New York City? I wonder if Creflo will let me have a ride in his plane..wait a minute.. I own a piece of that darn plane– I use to give his ministry money! I’m calling Creflo right now!!
