Subject: two questions: boink and fish shanty



1). Two years ago some students told me that "to boink" was current slang

meaning to have intercourse with, as in "John boinked Mary." Last week

I heard it used meaning "to get rid of (x)." I assumed that this was

connected with the onomatopoeic comic book use of old. What is current

with boink?

2). Can a fish shanty be a structure other than that used for ice fishing?
