Skuppy's real name was Skippy. Skuppy had gone all through school with Skippy Madison. Skuppy hated Skippy M. Skippy Madison was a spoiled brat who always went around telling everybody in the class that he, Skippy M., was Skippy Numero Uno. And to heap insult upon injury Skippy Madison insisted on calling him "The Skipster" or "Skip-A-Roonie" or "Skip-A-Dippa-Do" or whatever other asinine combination of syllables popped into his head.
When Skuppy took the job as bartender, his name was still Skippy. But after night after night after night of hearing, "Hey, Skuppy, pour me a double." or "Skuppy, see what the little lady over there will have." Skippy decided to just go with it and change his name to Skuppy.
There were some legal costs involved, but for the first time in a very long time Skuppy felt like he could forget all about Skippy Madison. That is until Tipsy Madison came in one night to tell his troubles to the bartender.

Goodnight to all. I hope I did not miss anybody.
