Herkie !!!
Edited on Mon Apr-03-06 12:37 AM by darkstar


Definition:

A cheerleading jump where one leg (usually your weakest) is bent towards the ground and your other leg (usually your strongest) is out to the side as high as it will go in the toe touch position. This jump is very similar to the Side Hurdler except for the position of the bent leg. There are right Herkies and left Herkies. In a right Herkie your right leg is straight with your left leg bent and the opposite is true for a left Herkie. Sometimes called a hurkie. Named after Lawrence "Herkie" Herkimer.

3. Mmm...maybe a saint or something.
The religious implications of "herk" are sure to be a point of some contention in the near future...:shrug:

10. I don't know if we should incorporate.
Our choices are a) a religion, b) a nation-state or c) an anarcho-syndicalist collective commune type dealy-bopper.

(I like C)

15. It's its own thing.
I don't think we can ascribe it to any particular school of thought.
