By Mark Wilson, with due apologies to Charles Dickens
Every once in a while, a story is written that makes us think, really think. It is a story that is remembered throughout the ages and is very intelligent in nature.
This story, then, must be satirized.
In the tradition of the Starfleet News Network, SNN Headline News and WeBBSights are shamed to present the complete mockery of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. But it won't be mocked alone. No, many members of STF will turn red (or green depending on your species) when they read this. Some of you won't be offended at all, despite our best efforts to do so. Anyway you read, we hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed reading it, too.
[Note to Cast Members ridiculed (especially Mike Ballway & Colin Wyers: Nothing personal. It's a joke!]
[Note to Readers: At Colin Wyers' request, no jokes have been made about his political orientation, so don't be too disappointed.]
The story is divided, like A
Christmas Carol, into five Staves. We reccomend that you begin
with Stave I, since that is the beginning.
