My Dear Uncle Scrooge First of all‚ I want to thank everyone for coming out on this cold‚ wintery‚ evening to celebrate my Uncle Scrooge’s change to happiness. Since I was a little boy‚ all I could remember about my Uncle Scrooge was how unpleasant‚ unhappy‚ and how miserable of a human being he was.

The fact that the ghost did not talked at all only made Scrooge more nervous‚ he did not know
