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.
Before leaving for another ranch to check on the possibility
of buying a bull, 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.
After paying 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 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-bull").
