We often are asked about Uglug, that paleolithic precursor From whom each George Bush is descended with a pattern of speech ever worser. The question most asked? "How'd he come by his name?" for Uglug is not all that common, And wasn't back then, way before when they mixed up embalmin' with bombin'.

So bombin' became a part of their game, yet when asked to explain Uglug's name, They hawed and they hemmed, discreetly disphlegmed, and said, "Uglug's what Uncle became "When our ancestor, Glug, impossibly smug, succumbed with his last chug-a-lug, And though gasping for air, tried to call for a prayer and said, yes, you guessed it, 'uh, glug'."
