3. Is 'gee whiz' just an exclamation, doesn't have much meaning? just an exclamation Do you still use it today? No

Some people do. Interjections such as "gee whiz" and "holy moly" and "Heavens to Betsy" never really fall out of general usage. It just varies from person to person. People who generally will not use curse words will use "gee whiz" instead, for example.
