      You got here just in time; due to lack of responses, I was considering deleting this post.

    I do. I guarantee I'll never call a creek a "crick". I don't even use the word "crick" to describe a stiff neck. The only scenario I can imagine using the word "crick" is if I had a dog named "Cricket" and used it as a nickname. Even then, I don't think I'd use it.
