"Acronym--A word formed from the initial letters or syllables of other words; for example, radar". If DVD was pronounced 'DUH-FF-DUH' then it would be an acronym.. "abbreviation--a shortened form of a word or words, either the use of initials instead of a whole word, for example: TTA (Teacher Training Agency)" like DVD

I can see a connection with jury rigging (as in fixing trials), and apparently the spare mast on a ship is called a 'jury-rig'. its a one size fits all so some alteration is needed to get it working as a replacement. i guess the jerry thing was a later corruption.. sorry guys.. i'll keep my mouth shut in future :#
