Subject: Schluppy



I encountered the term <schluppy> in the newspaper this morning, in the

phrase <schluppy men>, as ones who would not be good enough for a womal

(<woman) like Christie Brinkley. It sounds like a Yiddishism, but is not

among the words christened in the 10th Merriam Webster's Collegiate which

I have at hand. Any translations?
