comfortable

Hoss rode into town to buy a bull. Unfortunately, when he bought it, he was left with one dollar.

 

Hoss needed to tell his wife to come with the truck and get the bull, but telegrams cost one dollar per word.

 

Hoss said to the telegram man,

 

"OK. I have my one word-'comfortable'.

 

" Why do you want to tell her that?” asked the telegram man.

 

"Oh, she's not the best reader," Hoss said.

 

"She'll read it really slowly". (Com-for-ta-ble, get it?)
