The helicopter ride..... - 06/25/17 08:26 PM
Ethel and Joe were on vacation and came across a County Fair to attend.
At the fair, a guy was offering helicopter rides for $50.
Joe REALLY wanted to take a ride but Ethel reminded him that their budget for the trip was spent and there was NO room to blow $50 on the helicopter.
The pilot heard the discussion and offered a possible solution....."I'll give you the ride for FREE on the condition that you don't say a single word until we land."
Joe and Ethel agreed, it sounded like a great deal.
The pilot did every stunt he could think of, the tail slide, the snake, the funnel, even the death spiral. All the time...not a peep from the back seats.
He lands the helicopter and says to Joe "I'm more than impressed, you guys were completely silent!"
Joe replied "Well, I almost spoke up when Ethel fell out, but..fifty bucks is fifty bucks."
