Yes, this is probably the colloquial definition, but the Webster's I hold in
front of me doesn't contain such a definition. (abbreviated):
1. a strip of any material that supports a woman's corset
2. to prepare, equip, to dress, to array, to employ, to make use of
3. to go, to hurry, to guide or direct one's course, (some obscure nautical
usage which I don't feel like typing out)
4. a harvest feast, or feast of first fruits, among Creek Indians
