The Great Detetive in action

Post by Carolynn »

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John 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 his faithful friend and says, "Watson, look up into the sky and tell me what you see."

Watson says, "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, I see that that Saturn is in Leo. Theologically, I can see that God is great and we are small and insignificant. Horologically, I deduce that it's about 3 AM. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Why? What does it tell you, Holmes?"

Holmes is silent for a moment, then speaks, "The sight of those beautiful stars over our heads tells me that something or someone has stolen our tent. Elementary my dear Watson."
