Er, undocumented slang that was current among some cohort or another, 
meaning roughly 'appropriate in a friendly but unauthorized fashion'. 
Borrowing without explicit leave. Something you do between friends or 
other intimates, rather than outright theft.

And...it's probably better if I just ack the greetings from everyone so 
far in one  message rather than sending a bunch of non-'nix noise, eh?  
Grins back to Brian, Breen, Rick, Mike, and Jimmy. Anyone who greets me 
after this note will have to be acknowledged later.)
