"The best thing anyone can have up their sleeve is a good funny bone"

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson were going camping. They pitched their tent under the stars and went to sleep. Sometime in the middle of the night Holmes woke Watson up and said, "Watson, look up at the stars, and tell me what you see."

Watson said, "I see a fantastic panorama of countless stars."

Holmes said, "And what do you deduce from that?"

Watson replied, "Astronomically, it suggests to me that if there are billions of other galaxies that have roughly similiar stellar population densities as represented by my view, that, potentially, trillions of planets may be associated with such a galactic and, therefore, stellar population. Allowing for for similiar chemical distribution throughout the cosmos it may be reasonably implied that life--and possibly intelligent life--may well fill the universe.

Theologically, it tells me that the vastness of space may be yet another suggestion of the greatness of God and that we are small and insignificant.

Meteorologically, the blackness of the sky and the cripsness of the stellar images tells me that there is a low humidity and stable air and therefore we are most likely to enjoy a beautiful day tommorrow."

"Watson, you idiot, someone stole our tent!"
