Thank you for answering! I know that "lug" can mean "ear", I just 
thought there may be more to it. All previous twins' "ear" jokes were 
based on a word play: Holey/Holy, 'ear, 'ear. I wondered if "lugless" 
had a second meaning in Britain, otherwise the joke is just 
straightforward, without any pun. And I still don't understand why they 
had to replace "lugless" with another word in Am. edition. "Lug/ear" is 
easily found in ordinary dictionaries :-).
