Line of Thinking

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 way
of 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. 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 way of thinking."
