Eight turns away. The Dutch and the Iroquois are not that far behind us. Luckily, they have no saltpetre. I'm worried about when they get to Nationalism. They'll be able to produce riflemen. Hopefully we'll have artillery or something by then.
Formerly known as Masuro.
The sun never sets on a PBEM game.
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.
The brunette tells her sister,"There's a bull for sale at this farmers ranch a few hours away.
When I get there, if I decide to buy the bull, I'll send you a telegram so you know that you can drive out 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, 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 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 telegraph 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-bul")
