From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   JEDR // n.   Synonymous with {IYFEG}.   At one time, people in
   the Usenet newsgroup rec.humor.funny tended to use `JEDR' instead of
   {IYFEG} or `'; this stemmed from a public attempt to
   suppress the group once made by a loser with initials JEDR after he
   was offended by an ethnic joke posted there.   (The practice was
   {retcon}ned by the expanding these initials as `Joke
   Ethnic/Denomination/Race'.)   After much sound and fury JEDR faded
   away; this term appears to be doing likewise.   JEDR's only permanent
   effect on the net.culture was to discredit `sensitivity' arguments
   for censorship so thoroughly that more recent attempts to raise them
   have met with immediate and near-universal rejection.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Jethro
      his excellence, or gain, a prince or priest of Midian, who
      succeeded his father Reuel. Moses spent forty years after his
      exile from the Egyptian court as keeper of Jethro's flocks.
      While the Israelites were encamped at Sinai, and soon after
      their victory over Amalek, Jethro came to meet Moses, bringing
      with him Zipporah and her two sons. They met at the "mount of
      God," and "Moses told him all that the Lord had done unto
      Pharaoh" (Ex. 18:8). On the following day Jethro, observing the
      multiplicity of the duties devolving on Moses, advised him to
      appoint subordinate judges, rulers of thousands, of hundreds, of
      fifties, and of tens, to decide smaller matters, leaving only
      the weightier matters to be referred to Moses, to be laid before
      the Lord. This advice Moses adopted (Ex. 18). He was also called
      Hobab (q.v.), which was probably his personal name, while Jethro
      was an official name. (See {MOSES}.)
