    This is wrong. Wrong I tell you... as far as the jerry-rigged is concerned. "Jerry" is an derogatory name for a German Person. Just like the N-Word is for a Black Person. Both have been used, N##g#r Rigged and Jerry Rigged are both forms of slang used to describe something that has been put together using an alternative method usually done cheaper than doing it correctly. Americans like to be derogatory.
