Holmes and Watson

Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson went on a camping trip.
After a good meal and a bottle of wine they lay down for the
night, and went to sleep.
Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful
friend awake. “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?” Holmes questioned.
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, someone has stolen our tent.”
