Allergic to the very spirit of Christmas, a Warwick Fire
Dept. dispatcher destroyed a co-worker's decorations - wanting
" a Christmas free work-place ". A direct descendent of one Ebenezer
Scrooge - not yet visited by ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and
Future ? Or did he just forget those little " helper " pills that
get millions of normally decent people through the JOYOUS season ?
To be sure, the spirit of consumerism poisons the season
for the most good natured amongst us. If I were a radio personality,
I would read to the kids this poem on the night before Christmas:
" Howl " by the Jewish beatnik A. Ginsberg. THEN I would offer
the music of Bach as a sedative.
Don't be too hard on that cheerless dispatcher: Tis a very
stressful time of year. Perhaps Santa Claus will give us a brand new
casino for Christmas. Never lose hope !
