Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are camping in the desert...

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are camping in the desert.
They have set-up their tent and are asleep.

Some hours later, Holmes wakes his faithful friend.
"Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see".

Dr. Watson replies, "I see millions of stars."

"What does that tell you?" asks Sherlock Holmes.

Dr. Watson ponders for a minute and replies,
"Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions
of galaxies playing host to billions of stars and planets.
Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo.
Time wise, it appears to be approximately 3:15 AM.
Theologically, it is evident the Lord is all powerful
and as small insignificant beings, we pale in His/Her presence.
Meteorologically, we are in for a clear and beautiful day tomorrow
with a light easterly breeze in the morning.
What does it tell you, Holmes?"

Sherlock Holmes is silent for a moment,
then looking at Dr. Watson, he says:

"It tells ME that someone has stolen our tent."
