Jerry-rig

To attach, whether by tying down or other means, one object to another in order to increase the object's function and/or mobility.

This term's origins can be traced back to World War II and the use of Jerry cans by American troops.

Jerry cans were attached to GI "jeeps" using straps, tie downs and/or other improvised means; hence the term "Jerry-rig(ged)".

I know that Jerry stole my tin foil. He has until midnight to give me 9.99 plus tax.

JERRY

Jerry is the best guy ever. He's got his own personality and he's not afraid to be himself. He's very caring and treats his girl like a princess. He makes a great best friend and always looks out for the people he cares about. He's hilarious and knows how to make his girl smile. He's stubborn and he's proud of it
Jerry is such an awesome guy

Jerry

Jerry is an awesome man who is funny, loving, caring, sexy, and loyal. If the ladies ever get a chance to be with Jerry, they should not hesitate because he is a serious catch. No one will ever be as loyal as this man. But break his heart and he will not give you a second chance. Jerry is committed to doing the right things in life and is always trying to make the people around him happy. If you meet a Jerry in high school or college (or even anywhere really), you must have him...if he's single of course.
I met this guy named Jerry who was so caring, loving, and understanding. He was really cute and we ended up dating and getting married after. I love Jerry's personality above all and I cannot wait to see what comes next in our marriage.
