Statistical proof that storks deliver babies. Something to thing about next time someone tries to prove something with statistics.

Storks...I got a joke about that.
Three storks are at the bar after work, recounting how their day went.
The first stork says he delivered a baby boy to the Johnson’s and how thrilled they were with the new arrival.
The second stork says he delivered a baby girl to the Robinson’s and how thrilled they were with the new arrival.
The third stork says he went to the convent.
The other two storks uncomfortably asked which nun received the baby.
“Oh, no baby” said the stork, “I just like to see the freaked out look on the Mother Superior’s face when she sees me.”

Which leads me to ask a question.
IF a man and woman get a baby from a stork, does two queers get one from a swallow?

Only an African swallow. A baby would be too heavy for a European swallow to carry.

But, of course, African swallows are non-migratory.

Place one foot in a tub of frozen icewater, and place the other foot in a tub of red hot coals. Statistically you are doing just fine, but you have lost both your feet!........... 😆

Did my intentional use of the word “swallow” mislead you?
To: Ruy Dias de Bivar
Probably. I was in a Monty Python mood too, so I decided to go with the joke.
