Camping trip joke...

I wouldn't usually post this here, but in light of recent events it 
helped to cheer me up, and thought it might do the same for all of 
you.

Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson went on a camping trip. After a good 
meal and a bottle of wine they retired 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 suspect that we will 
have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?" 

Holmes was silent for a minute, then spoke. "Watson, you idiot. 
Someone has stolen our tent.'
