Stumpy Grinder and his wife Martha were from Portland,
Maine. Every year they went to the Portland Fair and every
year Stumpy said, "Ya know, Mahtha, I'd like ta get a ride
in that theah aihplane." And every year, Martha would
say "I know, Stumpy, but that aihplane ride costs ten
dollahs .. and ten dollahs is ten dollahs."
So one year Stumpy says, "By Jeebers, Mahtha, I'm 71 yeahs
old, and if I don't go this time I may nevah go." Martha
replies, "Stumpy, that there aihplane ride is ten
dollahs ... and ten dollahs is ten dollahs."
So the pilot overhears then and says, "Folks, I'll make
you a deal. I'll take you both up for a ride. If you can
stay quiet for the entire ride and not say ONE WORD, then
I won't charge you. But just ONE WORD and it's ten
dollars."
They agree and up they go... the pilot does all kinds of
twists and turns, rolls and dives, but not a word is
heard. He does it one more time, and there is still no
word... so he lands.
He turns to Stumpy as they come to a stop and says, "By
golly, I did everything I could think of to get you to
holler out, but you didn't."
And Stumpy replies "Well, I was gonna say something when
Mahtha fell out ... but ten dollahs is ten dollahs."
