Does "Garagoz" mean something. I knew a GC who was nick-named "Garagooshe", but never knew what it meant except it was probably a Turkish word.

Karagöz;

(Turkish: “Black Eyes,” or “Gypsy”), type of Turkish shadow play, named for its stock hero, Karagöz. The comically risqué plays are improvised from scenarios for local audiences in private homes, coffee shops, public squares, and innyards. The Karagöz play apparently was highly developed in Turkey by the 16th century and was adapted in Greece and North Africa. In the 20th century, …

Karagöz (meaning blackeye in Turkish) and Hacivat are the lead characters of the traditional Turkish shadow play, popularized during the Ottoman period. The central theme of the plays are the contrasting interaction between the two main characters: Karagöz represents the illiterate but straightforward public, whereas Hacivat belongs to the educated class, speaking Ottoman Turkish and using a poetical and literary language.

Karagiozis (Greek: Καραγκιόζης, from Turkish: Karagöz) is a shadow puppet and fictional character of Greek traditional folklore inspired from an Ottoman Turkish counterpart who was known as Karagöz. He is the main character of the tales narrated in the Greek theatre of shadows. Karagöz in Turkish means 'black-eyed', and it is the origin of this character's name.

It is an insult to call someone karagiozis, in everyday life. Really, we are surrounded by many garagiozides (plural of garagiozis) but we hope they will be sent home soon. I remember a few years ago a person was sued because he called a policeman that stopped him on the road garagiozis. He told the judge that he referred to the black eyes of the policeman but the judge would not buy it and duly gave him a hefty fine.

Also in the Greek parliament in the 60`s there was an MP named garagiozis (his actual surname). During a debate an MP from a rival party told him to "stop the garagiozilikia" and garagiozis downed him with a powerful left that would make Mohamed Ali jealous.
