Expensive Hobby

There was a father who was very close to his son. They used to go
everywhere together including calling "chicken"
(chinese slang for prostitute).
One day, the son decided to go oversea for study. The father was very
supportive. Before his son left, the father told the
son, "We cannot call chicken together for the next few years. However,
if you need to call chicken, please go ahead and
I will pay for it. But please state the expense as 'Shooting Bird' so
that your mum will not suspect."
So the son left. For the first month, the father received the bill
from the son (shooting bird - $1000). Subsequently for the next few
month, the bill for shooting bird is above $1000. The father could
not tolerate this any more, so he wrote to his son.
"Son, you have been shooting too expensive bird, try some cheaper one"
A month later, the father received another bill from his son. It
wrote:
Shooting Bird - $50
Rifle Repair - $2,000
