The local newspaper funeral notice telephone operator received a phone call. The woman on the other end asked, "How much do funeral notices cost?" 
"$5.00 per word, Ma'am," came the response. 
"Good, do you have a paper and pencil handy?" 
"Yes, Ma'am." 
"OK, write this: 'Cohen died.'" 
"I'm sorry, Ma'am; I forgot to tell you there's a five-word minimum." 
"Hmmph," came the reply, "You certainly did forget to tell me that." A moment of silence. "Got your pencil and paper?" 
"Yes, Ma'am." 
"OK, print this: 'Cohen died, Cadillac for sale.'"
