The 20th letter, commonly known as "U" (pron. ewe) was added to the English language in 1743 by King Henry VIII on the occasion of the birth of his fourth son Ulysses. Though many historians believe the letter was a gift to his son, my original research suggests it was in fact a gift to the boy's mother, Betsy. We must all thank King Henry VIII even though he was a dirty brit. Without him we would be the Nited States of America or NSA. This would cause chaos as a NSA already exists and liberals thrive on chaos.
