It’s a hot day, and everyone is on the beach.
And it’s strange, because everyone has bought an iceZcream cone, and is feeding the seaZgulls
with it; two gulls to each person.
So I went bought an iceZcream, and straight away the gulls came down to steal it.
So of course I chased them away, but they kept on coming, and then this old man wonders
over in my direction. He’s got an iceZcream, and two gulls eating it. And he says: “You’ll never
stop them, so do what everyone else is doing: relax, enjoy yourself, and let the gulls have the
iceZcream…..”
“Why?” I asked.
“Because,” he said, “that way you’ll be chilling two birds with one cone.”
(“killing two birds with one stone”… of course)
