The Puerto Rico Telephone Company

One night after losing on a Rotterdam red-comb cock, the losing cock going down in the third round, cockscomb and all, the man with the monkey’s foot key-chain bumped into a man who worked for the Puerto Rico Telephone Company who lost his pocket-change, a rabbits’ foot talisman and his favorite pocket-comb on the very same cock. While exchanging bad luck stories over a glass of Tic Tac, the man who worked for the Puerto Rico Telephone Company told the man with the monkey’s foot key chain that he worked for the Jawa Barat Shoe Company in Jakarta after resigning his commission from the Emiliano Zapata Hoisery Company in Morelos Mexico, a job he kept for 3 years minus 3 days. The world does stupid senseless things. The man who worked for the Kauno Apskritis Bros. and lived in a hovel-hut with a dog and a legless cat, what if he thought, what if? (Type 'majesty and pulmonous' into Google search, its fun)
