Funny Joke: Blonde Telegram

Many years ago, there were two sisters, one blonde and one brunette, who inherited the family ranch…

Unfortunately, after just a few years, they were in financial trouble.

In order to keep the bank from repossessing the ranch…

they needed to purchase a bull from a stockyard in a far-away town so that they could breed their own stock.

At this point, they were down to their last $600.

Upon leaving, the brunette told 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 arrived at the stockyard, inspected the bull, and decided she wanted to buy it.

The man told her that he will sell it for $599, and no less.

After paying him, she drove to the nearest town to send her sister a telegram to tell her the news.

She walked into the telegraph office, and said…

“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 explained that he’d be glad to help her, then added, “It’s just 99 cents a word.”

Well, after paying for the bull, the brunette only had $1 left.

She realized that she’d only be able to send her sister one word.

After a few minutes of thinking, she nodded and said, “I want you to send her the word ‘comfortable’.”

The operator shook his head…

“How is she ever going to know that you want her to hitch the trailer to your pickup truck… “

“Then, drive out here to haul that bull back to your ranch, if you send her just the word ‘comfortable’?”

The brunette explained, “My sister’s blonde and the word’s big so, she’ll read it very slowly… “

“Com – for – da – bull.”
