A Christmas Story --DeWese

Lonesome Joe went on, "I got to drinking and gambling at the club. Eventually, I was fired at the other account because I got drunk at a couple of business lunches. My boss indulged me for awhile and continued to pay my draw. He was good to me. But I couldn't bring myself to find any new accounts and, eventually, he had to let me go. You know the rest. I lost my wife and kids and my home. I would love to move to New York where I could live with my mother. She's a widow and is ill, and maybe I could get my life together. Maybe I could get a job with a New York printer in customer service or production."
