The Lust of Ebenezeer Scrooge — John Thomas

This is a fable about a twenty-one year old man, Ebenezer Scrooge, who is frustrated with just about everything; his life, his job, his girl. Not unlike many his age, this particular individual displays little or no patience when dealing with anyone, and harbors the deepest suspicions for most everyone who he comes in contact with, regardless of the circumstances. But how did he become that way? Where did this compulsion get started? Surely this remains a reasonable question. When did all this thirst for power take root? Has it always been about money?Surely then there was a time when, as big, and bad, and strong as he was, he had to have had them coming at him every time he poked his big broad shoulders in public! And, whenever he smiled no woman had a chance! That’s the Ebenezer Scrooge I visualize at age twenty-one! Just hitting his stride!
