…I been so busy counting opportunities I ain’t had time to use any…
Monroe D. Underwood
The next morning a tall skinny guy came in.
He had wild eyes.
He was smoking a goofy-looking pipe.
He told me he was a detective.
He asked for a job.
I said what’s your name?
He said Sherlock Holmes.
I said I would have bet on it.
He said Purdue between us we can lay Professor Moriarty by the heels.
I said is that rascal up to his old tricks?
He said baby you better believe it.
I sent him over to the Ammson Private Detective Agency.
I said Ammson is always looking for good men.
I heard later that Ammson hired him.
As my replacement.
