So the other night we were watching some western movie on tv. In the movie a guy sends a telegram. As always when they send telegrams in movies, they say "stop" at the end of every sentence... most of the time.
My soon to be step-daughter, asked me what does "stop" mean. I had to think, I have no idea. So, I told her that they said that instead of adding a period to the end of every sentence. Was I right? What is the story behild saying "stop" what does it really mean?
