Stop me if you've heard this one...

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, theyneed to purchase a bull so that they can breed their own stock. The brunette takes their last $600 with her to find a bull. 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 meand haul it home."
The brunette arrives at the man's ranch, inspects the bull, anddecides she wants to buy it. The man tells her that he will sell it for $599, no less. 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 atelegram 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 a few minutes of thinking, 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 thetrailer to your pickup truck and drive out here to haul that bull backto your ranch if you send her just the word "comfortable?"
The brunette explains, "My sister's blonde. The word's big.
She'll read it very slowly .... com-for-da-bul."
