It's just too hot to wear clothes today.

Sue and Bob, a pair of tight wads (пара скупердяев; tight – плотный, тугой; wad – связка, пучок; пачка бумажных денег), lived in the Midwest (жили на Среднем Западе), and had been married years (и уже были женаты /долгие/ годы). Bob had always wanted to go flying (Боб всегда хотел полетать). The desire deepened (желание становилось глубже) each time a barnstormer (каждый раз, когда летчик-спортсмен, выступающий с летными шоу в провинции; barn – амбар + to storm – стремительно проноситься; штурмовать) flew into town to offer rides (прилетал в город предложить покататься; ride – поездка; to ride – ехать верхом). Bob would ask (бывало предлагал), and Sue would say, "No way (ни в коем случае), ten dollars is ten dollars (десять долларов есть десять долларов)."

The years went by (прошли годы), and Bob figured he couldn't wait much longer (понял, что не может ждать больше), so he got Sue out to the show (он брал Сью на представление), explaining (объясняя), it's free to watch (смотреть /можно/ бесплатно), let's (давай) at least (по крайней мере) watch.

And once he got there (и однажды, когда он пришел туда) the feeling became very strong (это чувство /желание полетать/ стало очень сильным). Sue and Bob started an argument (начали дискуссию, спор).

The Pilot, between flights (пилот между полетами), overheard (подслушал /to hear-heard-heard/) that, and said, "I'll tell you what (вот что я вам скажу), I'll take you up flying (я возьму вас полетать), and if you don't say a word the ride is on me (и если вы не произнесете ни слова, поездка на мне = за мой счет), but if you utter one sound (но, если вы издадите /хоть/ один звук), you pay ten dollars (вы платите 10 долларов).

So off they flew (и они взлетели). The Pilot doing as many rolls (пилот проделывал столько "бочек": roll – свиток, сверток; авиац. «бочка» – двойной переворот через крыло) and dives (и пикирований; dive – ныряние; to dive – нырять) as he could – heading to the ground (сколько мог – направляясь в землю) as fast as the plane could go (так быстро, как самолет мог лететь) and pulling out of the dive at just the very last second (и выходил из пикирования прямо в самую последнюю секунду). Not a word (ни слова). Finally he admitted defeat (наконец он признал поражение) and went back the airport (и вернулся в аэропорт).

"I'm surprised, why didn't you say anything? (я удивлен, почему вы ничего не сказали)"

"Well I almost said something (ну, я чуть не сказал что-то) when Sue fell out (когда Сью выпала), but ten dollars is ten dollars."

No way.
