Cockney English famously uses rhyming slang. I wonder if any form of argot used by Moose or the snipers might do so as well. If they use rhyming slang in London, might they not also do so on Jamaica? Could "duck in a noose" be code for "Moose"?

I don't know about all that "duck in a noose" stuff. I remember looking it up on the internet last fall and finding a fable that includes the phrase. I have a friend from the Dominican Republic, but can't think of anyone I know from Jamaica. Next time I see her, I'll ask her if it means anything unique that she's aware of.
