The Oxford English dictionary has no exact matches. Are you sure that malook is even a word? It's an Italian-American slang word, the "full" version of the word "mook." It's in the urban dictionary, among other places. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=mook Mook is in the online Merriam-Webster. It has several, similar meanings...the most common is "idiot." Growing up when I did in New Haven, I had lots of friends of various cultural backgrounds, including many Italians. In describing someone like you, "malook" was a word that would have been used. Or "mook." It had meanings back then beyond idiot...some of the WASPs were referred to as mooks not necessarily because they were idiots but because they were so "white bread." No decent "ethnics" back then ate Wonder Bread. |

No one bothered your Maryland Red Barn, so why would they be interested in your imaginary Ducati? |

No need for a side shot just the gauges. Good luck. |
