Sorry in advance, but your username makes me think that Ken Leatherman and Jay Xtreme were cellmates at one time. I bit my tongue the last time I saw a post of yours, but can't hold my silence any longer. Say it ain't so!

      John,

      Yeah, really.

      Ken's last name is spelled Leatherman. Two 'a's.

        What? You mean Ken wasn't forming a separate, dual identity? Dagnabit!

        Got it corrected (thought it didn't look quite right). Thanks Paul.

      They're a couple of other Warriors. JayXtreme and Old Geezer (Ken Leatherman).

      No offense intended. Just having a little fun.

    Here is what dictionary says about the word geezer

    A relationship with a word we know well is disguised in the word geezer. A clue to this relationship is found in British dialect. The English Dialect Dictionary defines geezer as "a queer character, a strangely-acting person," and refers the reader to guiser, "a mummer, masquerader." The citations for guiser refer to practices such as the following: "People, usually children ... go about on Christmas Eve, singing, wearing masks, or otherwise disguised," the last word of this passage being the one to which geezer is related.


    It must have a different meaning in Australia?

      Urban Dictionary: geezer

      Basically the equal to the word "Dude" in the USA

    I found it extremely funny hence posting the definition

    " a strangely acting person"

    Surely that wont be you.

    My brother and his mates used to call the girls at school geezerbirds, some of them were so manly.
