A vampire bat came flapping in from the night, face all covered in fresh
blood and parked himself on the roof of the cave to get some sleep.
Pretty soon all the other bats could smell the blood and began hounding
him about where he got it. He told them to bug off and let him get some
sleep, but they persisted until he finally gave in.
"OK, follow me," he said and flew out of the cave with hundreds of bats
behind him. Down through a valley they went, across a river and into a huge
forest. Finally he slowed down and all the other bats excitedly milled
around him, tongues hanging out for blood.
"Do you see that large oak tree over there?" he asked. "Yes, yes, YES!"
the bats all screamed in a frenzy.
"Good" said the first bat, "Because I fucking didn't"
