- Wasn't that a Disney film? 101 Galations? Seriously, I think the word
- comes from "Gallic," as in French people. It describes a condition common
- in parts of England and Canada wherein otherwise normal people suddenly
- turn into Frenchmen. The change is characterized by sudden interest in
- grapes and watercolors. While culinary/gustatory IQ typically doubles
- during the early stages of the metamorphosis, the Weighted Mean Scruples
- Factor in the area of political foreign policy generally drops into
- single digits. The result is the sale of fissionable materials to any
- third-world country that has two shekels to rub together and the shipment
- of fine wines to so-called first world countries. Side effects: cute
- accent, inability to produce any rock'n'roll worth listening to.
- Treatment: a good whipping with wet leather strops.
