A blonde and a brunette inherit their family ranch... A pair of sisters, one blonde and one brunette, inherited their family ranch when their parents passed away. The ranch was in dire straits. To save it, the brunette sister decided to take a risk: she would put all the money in their savings towards buying a bull to repopulate the ranch. She took all $600 out of their account and got on a train to meet a seller who had a bull she could look at. She told her sister she'd send a message to come bring their truck and trailer up if she decided to buy the bull and needed to bring it home to the ranch, so as not to waste the gas money. The brunette met the seller and decided to take the bull. He sold it for $599. The brunette then went to have a telegram sent to her sister letting her know she could bring the trailer. ""That'll be $1 per word,"" said the clerk. ""I only have $1, so I'll have to just send her one word,"" sighed the brunette. She thought about it for a while. ""Comfortable. I want the message to say comfortable."" she said, sliding the dollar across the counter to the clerk. ""Miss, do you think she'll understand that? It seems a bit random,"" ""Oh, it's okay. She reads very slowly,"" explained the brunette sister.
