Day Brightener – The Genius of Sherlock Holmes

Sherlock Holmes and Watson go on a camping trip.  After  sharing a good meal and a bottle of wine, they retire to their  tent for the night. At about 3 AM, Holmes nudges Watson and asks, “Watson, look up into the sky and tell me what you see?”

Watson said, “I see millions of stars.”

Holmes asks, “And what does that tell you?”

Watson replies, “Astronomically, it tells me there are millions of  galaxies and potentially billions of planets.  Astrologically, it tells  me that Saturn is in Leo.  Theologically, it tells me that God is great  and we are small and insignificant.  Horologically, it tells me that  it’s about 3 AM.  Meteorologically, it tells me that we will have a  beautiful day  tomorrow.  What does it tell you, Holmes?”

“It tells me that someone has stolen our tent!”
