Joe is right, geto is the correct spelling in this case, though it doesn't necessarily have a bad connotation; in some quarters it is a synonym for "cool". See http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=geto

Another example of why you should not be so quick to school or correct others; you can embarrass yourself. Lord knows I do it all the time!
