Historical references to this term began during the First "Who am I?" round of messages (I believe it was Mel Grindol who first coined the phrase in this list) and it seems to have become an accepted phrase; connoting wisdom, sagacity and wiliness. Other side effects may include hair loss, bodily expansion, and unaccounted aches and pains.
