Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson went on a camping trip.
After a good meal and a bottle of wine, they lay down in their
tent
for the night and went to sleep. Some hours later, Holmes awoke
and nudged his faithful friend awake.
"Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."
Watson replied, "I see millions and millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?" Holmes questioned.
Watson pondered for a minute.
"Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies
and
potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that
Saturn is in Leo.
Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter
past three.
Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful and that we
are small and insignificant.
"Meterologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day
tomorrow.
What does it tell you?"
Holmes was silent for a minute, then spoke.
"Watson, you silly goose! Someone has stolen our tent!"
