Thinking Outside the Box
A teacher asks her class, "If there are 5 birds sitting
on a fence and you shoot one of them, how many will be left?"
She calls on little BILLY. He replies, "None, they will
all fly away with the first gunshot." The teacher replies,
"The correct answer is 4, but I like your thinking."
Then little BILLY says, "I have a question for YOU. There
are 3 women sitting on a bench having ice cream: One is delicately
licking the sides of the triple scoop of ice cream. The second
is gobbling down the top and sucking the cone. The third is
biting off the top of the ice cream."
He then asked, "Which one is married?"
The teacher, blushing a great deal, replies, "Well, I suppose
the one that's gobbled down the top and sucked the cone."
To which Little Billy replied, "The correct answer is
'the one with the wedding ring on', but I like your thinking."
