He schemes with a midget who goes around attempting to clunk men upside the head and cause their demise. But being a midget he can only reach so far which earns him a dubious name and causes his victims much pain. Excerpt:Christmas Eve snow, lacy like Victoria Secret panties caressed Ebenezer's window. Folks carrying Christmas hams and bags of yams tripped and stumbled along the broken sidewalks. Some carried toys from China bought lovingly from Wall of the Mart. A few got full from cheap vodka and fruit punch and commenced to singing Christmas carols. They mixed up the Christmas songs with bits of old-time Gospel melodies.Swing low silent jingle bellsAs Mary weeps all ye faithful comeA rumpa dump rump. A rumpa dump come.Oh Come ye to precious lordTaking my hand to JerusalemA rumpa dump rump. A rumpa dump come!Dead cats, Ebenezer yelled at the carolers outside. They went away. But there was a thump and loud yowl at his window. When he peeked out, he stared straight into the dead eyes of a dead Persian stuck to the ice on his window.Original Title: Christmas in Linken Park Chicago
