Sherlock Holmes

Sherlock Holmes and Watson camped in the desert, set up their tent, and fell asleep. Some hours later, Holmes wakes his faithful friend.


"Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."


Watson replies, "I see millions of stars."


"What does that tell you?" asks Holmes.


Watson ponders for a minute.


"Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow."


Holmes is silent for a moment, then speaks.


"Watson, you idiot, someone has stolen our tent."
