Steve Jeeper and his wife were from Tustin, Michigan. Every year they went to the Osceola Co. Fair, and every year Steve said " Ya know, I'd like ta get a ride in that theah aihplane." and every year his wife would say "I know Steve, but that ihplane ride costs ten dollahs.... and ten dollahs is ten dollahs." So Steve says " By Jeebers,I'm 58 yeahs old, if I don't go this time I may nevah go." wife replies "

Steve, that there aihplane ride is ten dollahs...and ten dollahs is ten dollahs."

So the pilot "Mark Schmidt" overhears them 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, 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, still nothing... so he lands.

He turns to Steve 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 Steve replies " Well, I was gonna say something when the wife fell out...but ten dollahs is ten dollahs!
