<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 152791, member: 44&quot;]I hadn&#039;t ever heard of &quot;jury-rigged&quot; until it was mentioned on these forums. Soooo just looked it up. Like af said a nautical term for repairing something or other. Jury-rigging temporary or makeshift repairs, and on a ship jerry rig is a replacement mast. Welll, I learned something new today!</p><p><br /></p><p>Also Agree with af on Jerry being an English for the Germans were referred to as *G*erry and not *J*erry. BTW, af, the term Gerry was also used here in the states during WWI as well as Kraut.</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
