Joke of the week [192 = year 4, #36] detective joke (1): Sherlock Holmes (March 20 - March 26)
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go on a camping trip,
set up their tent, and fall asleep. Some hours later, Holmes wakes his faithful
friend.
"Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."
Watson replies, "I see millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?"
Watson ponders for a minute. "Astronomically speaking, it tells me that
there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.
Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Timewise, it appears to be
approximately a quarter past three. Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all
powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will
have a beautiful day tomorrow. What does it tell you?"
Holmes is silent for a moment, then speaks. "Watson, you idiot, someone has
stolen our tent."
