Maggie and Tom are a couple with a passion for ice cream.
They stopped at the local ice creamery, then returned to
their car with double scoops of chocolate almond fudge.

No sooner had they settled back to enjoy their cones than
two birds landed on the car hood and began to chirp and
flutter and peck at the windshield.  Finally Maggie rolled
down her window and placed the rest of her cone on the 
hood.  The birds quieted down and began to eat the cone.

"Maggie, you're wonderful," said Tom.  "How did you think
of doing that?"

"Oh, it wasn't hard to figure out," said Maggie.  "It's
just another example of stilling two birds with one's
cone."
