A vampire bat came flapping in from the night covered in
fresh blood and parked himself on the roof of the cave
to get some sleep. Pretty soon all the other bats smelled
the blood and began hassling him about where he got it.
He told them to go away and let him get some sleep but
they persisted until finally he gave in.
"OK, follow me" he said and flew out of the
cave with hundreds of bats behind him.
Down through the valley they went, across a river and
into a forest full of trees. Finally he slowed down and
all the other bats excitedly milled around him.
"Now, do you see that tree over there?" he
asked.
"Yes, Yes, Yes!" the bats all screamed in
a frenzy.
"Good" said the bat, "Because I sure
as hell didn't!"
