Two storks are sitting in their nest—a father stork and a baby stork。The baby stork is crying so the father stork is trying to calm him。“Don't worry，son。Your mother will come back。She's only bringing people babies and making them happy。”
The next night，it's father's turn to do the job。Mother and son are sitting in the nest and the baby stork is crying again。The mother says，“Son，your father will be back as soon as possible，but now he's bringing joy to new mommies and daddies。”A few days later，the stork's parents are desperate because their son has been absent from the nest all night！Shortly before dawn，he returns and the parents ask him where he's been all night。
The baby stork says，“Nowhere。Just scare the hell out of college students！”
两只鹳在巢里坐着，一只是鹳爸爸，一只是鹳宝宝。鹳宝宝在哭，鹳爸爸想让它安静下来。它说：“别担心，你妈妈快回来了。它就是去赐给人们小孩，让他们高兴。”
第二天晚上，该鹳爸爸出去了。鹳妈妈和儿子坐在巢里，鹳宝宝又开始哭了。鹳妈妈说：“儿子，你爸爸很快就要回来了，但是现在他在给刚刚当上爸爸妈妈的人带来欢乐。”几天之后，鹳爸爸和鹳妈妈非常绝望，因为他们的儿子整个晚上都不在巢里。天快亮的时候，他才回来。鹳爸爸和鹳妈妈问他晚上去哪儿了。
鹳宝宝 说：“哪儿也没去。就是去把大学生的魂儿吓出来！”
