Ole and his wife Lena went to the state fair every year, and every
year Ole would say, "Lena, I'd like to ride in dat dere helicopter."
Lena always replied, "I know Ole, but dat dere helicopter ride is fifty
bucks, and fifty bucks is fifty bucks."
One year Ole and Lena went to the fair, and Ole said, "Lena, I'm 85
year old. If I don't ride dat dere helicopter, I might never get anudder
chance."
To this, Lena replied, "Ole, dat dere helicopter ride is fifty bucks, and
fifty bucks is fifty bucks."
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 a penny! But if you
say one word it's fifty dollars."
Ole and Lena agreed and up they went.
The pilot did all kinds of crazy maneuvers, but not a word was heard. He
did his daredevil tricks over and over again, trying to elicit even a
peep, but still not a word!
When they landed, the pilot turned to Ole and said, "By golly, I did
everything I could to get you to yell out, but you didn't. I am
impressed!"
Ole replied, "Well, to tell you da troot, I almost said somethin
when Lena fell oot, but ya know, fifty bucks is fifty bucks!"
