Morris and his wife Esther went to the state fair every year, and every
year Morris would say, ‘Esther, I’d like to ride in that helicopter’.

Esther always replied, ‘I know Morris, but that helicopter ride is 50
dollars and 50 dollars is 50 dollars’.

One year Esther and Morris went to the fair, and Morris said, ‘Esther,
I’m 85 years old. If I don’t ride that helicopter, I might never get
another chance.’

Esther replied, ‘Morris that helicopter is 50 dollars and 50 dollars is
50 dollars’.

The pilot overheard the couple and said, ‘Folks I’ll make you a deal.
I’ll take the both of you for a ride.
If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say a word I won’t
charge you! But if you say one word, it’s 50 dollars.’

Morris and Esther agreed and up they went. The pilot did all kinds of
fancy maneuvers, but not a word was heard. He did his daredevil tricks
over and over again, but still not a word. When they landed, the pilot
turned to Morris and said, ‘By golly, I did everything I could to get
you to yell out, but you didn’t. I’m impressed!’

Morris replied, ‘Well, to tell you the truth, I almost said something
when Esther fell out, but you know — 50 dollars is 50 dollars.’

    DonHoney…that joke’s at least as old as you.

    BTW: it’s sexist too.

    Yeah well, Morris and Esther must have been Democrats ’cause if they’d been Republicans they’d have pretended to be kill-joy scrooges about spending the money, all the while they’d have been borrowing enough money to buy the freaking helicopter, passing the debt on to their children, and making sure their rich friends made a profit off the deal.

    Rebecca,

    you are wrong! Everyone knows the helicopter would have actually been an Osprey!

  5. Rebecca says:

    Yeah! And they’d have hired some incompetent yahoo to pilot the thing and crash it at the first opportunity.
