Holmes and Watson Go Camping
Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson went on a camping trip. After a good meal
and a bottle of wine they lay down for the night, and went to sleep.
Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful friend. "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?"
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. Meteorologically,
I supect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Why, what does it
tell you?"
Holmes was silent for a minute, then spoke. "Watson, you imbecile.
Some bastard has stolen our tent."
