$50 is $50

[Mark]

[hello] Morris and his wife 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 ride is
50 dollars and 50 dollars is 50 dollars.

The pilot overheard the couple and thinking there could well be some fun
in this for him, said to them, "Folks, I'll make you a deal. I'll take
you both up! If you can stay quiet for the whole ride, not say a word, I
won't charge you a dime. If you do say a word, the charge is 50 dollars
for you both."

Morris and Esther agreed and up they went. Th e pilot did all kinds of
fancy moves. Not a word was heard. He did his dare-devil tricks over
and over, but still not a word. When they landed, the pilot turned to
Morris and said, "I did everything I could to make you yell out, but you
didn't and I'm impressed."

To which Morris replied, "Well, I was going to say something when Esther
fell out, but... 50 dollars is 50 dollars!"
