Here's one:

 

What English word is nine letters long, and can remain an English word at each step as you remove one letter at a time, right down to a single letter?

 

List the letter you remove each time and the word that results at each step...

2 sisters, a blonde n a brunette buy a ranch. they have $1000 saved up to buy a bull. the brunette goes off to find the biggest, best bull that she can. she finds one, and it is only $999! she buys it immediately and is very excited. the blonde is at home waiting, and so the brunette is going to send her a telegraph to have her come and pick up the bull. but when she goes into the telegraph office, she realizes that she only has enough money to buy one word, because telegraphs are .99 cents a word. after a while, she realizes the one word that she is going to send to her sister. What is the word? Why?

 

Hint: it isnt "bull" and the words can't be all ran together like this "comegetthebullnow!"

Five hundred begins it, five hundred ends it,

Five in the middle is seen;

First of all figures, the first of all letters,

Take up their stations between.

Join all together, and then you will bring

Before you the name of an eminent king

Okay so here is my thought process.

 

Starting at the end, your outcome will be a name of a king.

So there has to be letters. The only letters that I know of are roman numerals.

 

So... 500 is D

So beginning and end is D.

 

I immediately thought of Kind David of the bible.

It fit so far.

 

Five in the middle is the roman numeral V

The first of all figures is I keeping the roman numeral theme and the first of all letters is A

 

My guess is DAVID.
