beauty Explanation: booty could be beauty. There was a marketing slogan / advert for (processed) turkey / chicken that went: "It's bootiful" This may or may not account for the use of bird! (old) bird can mean - old guy bird is usually a derogatory way of describing a female (Oi, that's my bird!) Just a thought! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-07-07 19:30:17 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Other slang meanings of bird: fool or idiot (as in bird-brained) sly conniving (sly old bird) Other slang meaning of booty: Buttocks (shake your booty!) Treasure, spoils, winnings (hide the booty, collect the booty) hth |
