A Woman Who Traveled Abroad Without Her Husband ...
Contributed by Carl Allen on Sep 24, 2008 (message contributor)
A woman who traveled abroad without her husband got to Paris and found this fabulous bracelet she'd been looking for. And so she sent a wire back home saying, "I have found this beautiful bracelet, one I've been looking for all my life. It only cost $7,500. Do you think I can buy it?"
Her husband wired back a short but firm reply, "No, price too high!" And he signed his name. But in the transmission the comma was left out and the message read, "No price too high." Oh, she was thrilled!
Omitting that comma almost put that guy in a coma.
