I think it was more your teenage fan club that turned the thread to mush after it was doing so well, the illustrious LEUR, sonhouse and Bobs, men of learning but lacking in judgement. How you managed to hoodwink them is a testimony to your feminine wiles, Wiley E Cayote.

a cracker means different things to different people. Americans use it differently to Europeans and Badger used it differently again, as rhyming slang (for the discerning)
For the British, if something is a "cracker" it means it is "cracking good"--such as a track on a Jeff Beck album. For Americans, if someone is crackers, it means he is bonkers. But "bonking" for Brits means "humping" for Americans. Go figure (I can't suss it out). Two people separated by a common language.
