Well hello again my good friends shaneystar2 and Lie-in King. What shall I do about the Yiddish slang? On second thoughts, schmoes doesn't fit with beer. Must be schleps.

Obviously nothing defeats you. Thank you.
Schlep means to carry

Schleps

a stupid or clumsy person
Have just seen in The Joys of Yiddish - shlepper - a jerk. Never heard of it used like that but could be the other spelling too.
