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 fifty dollars, and fifty dollars is fifty 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.´
To this, Esther replied, ´Morris that helicopter ride is fifty dollars, and fifty dollars is fifty 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 don´t say a word I won´t charge you a penny! But if you say one word it´s fifty 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, fifty dollars is fifty dollars!

You can\'t be a Real Country unless you have a BEER and an airline - it helps if you have some kind of a football team or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a BEER.
