Two sisters, one blonde and one brunette, inherit
the family ranch.
Unfortunately, after just a few years, they are in
financial trouble. In order to keep the bank from
repossessing the ranch, they need to purchase a bull
so that they can breed their own stock.
Upon leaving, the brunette tells her sister, "When I
get there, if I decide to buy the bull, I'll contact
you to drive out after me and haul it home."
The brunette arrives at the man's ranch, inspects
the bull, and decides she wants to buy it. The man
tells her that he will sell it for $599, no less.
After buying him, she drives to the nearest town to
send her sister a telegram to tell her the news.
She walks into the telegraph office, and says, "I
want to send a telegram to my sister telling her
that I've bought a bull for our ranch. I need her
to hitch the trailer to our pickup truck and drive
out here so we can haul it home."
The telegraph operator explains that he'll be glad
to help her, then adds, "It's just 99 cents a word."
Well, after paying for the bull, the brunette only
has $1 left. She realizes that she'll only be able
to send her sister one word.
After thinking for a few minutes, she nods, and
says, "I want you to send her the word...
Comfortable."
The telegraph operator shakes his head. "How is she
ever going to know that you want her to hitch the
trailer to your pickup truck and drive out here to
haul that bull back to your ranch if you send
her the word, Comfortable?"
The brunette explains, "My sister's blonde. The
word's big. She'll read it slow... com-for-da-bul."
