Lertys. An Urban Legend Revealed.
Lerty. A strange word. Here's an equally strange story to explain the origin of the word and misuse of the concept. I guess we could break it down or parse it out as my English teacher encouraged back in high school. Lerty is a combination of "loiter-hanging around" and "ET"-extra terrestrial. Can you see it? I can barely, but it suits me as a plausible etymology.
