(Visitor's Sherlock Holmes jokes):
Sherlock Holmes and his trusty sidekick, Dr. Watson, were camping. In the early evening they sat looking at the campfire while sharing some good wine, and later they went to sleep.
Some hours later Sherlock Holmes woke up and nudged his friend. "Watson, Watson," he exclaimed. "Look up! What do you see?"
So Watson looked, and then he answered, "I see millions upon millions of stars, Holmes."
"Yes. And what does that tell you?" inquired the master detective.
Dr. Watson considered this carefully before he spoke.
"Well, Holmes, astronomically it tells me that there are an awful lot of stars, and I suppose that there might be planets, just like Earth, orbiting some of them.
Astrologically I observe that Saturn is in Leo.
Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately three a.m.
Theologically, it appears to me that God is all powerful and that you and I are actually very small and insignificant.
Meteorologically, I believe we shall have a glorious sunny day tomorrow.
What does it tell you, Holmes?"
"Watson, you imbecile! Some thief has stolen our tent!"
