There was an Irish woman named Ga. She loved the wind so much, especially the really really strong stuff. One day, as Ga was wandering along a rocky plain, the wind took her right off the edge of a cliff. She fell to her death. Days later, some of Ga's fellow villagers were wandering along the very same cliff and they saw Ga lying dead on the rocks. "Ga LE!" he yelled, meaning, "Ga DEAD!" Except for he said "le" instead of "dead". So to this day, a strong wind is known as GALE in honor of poor dead Ga. There was an Irish woman named Ga.
