Nice clean mystery joke..yes, indeed..

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go on a a camping
trip. After a good dinner
and a bottle of wine, they retire for the night,
and go to sleep.,,,,

Some hours later, Holmes wakes up and nudges his
faithful friend.
"Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you
see "I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes, '
replies Watson.

"And what do you deduce from that?' Watson ponders for a minute.

"Well, astronomically, it tells me that there are
millions of galaxies..,
potentially billions of planets. Astrologically,
I observe that Saturn is in Leo. I deduce that the time is about
quarter
past three. Meteorologically, I suspect that we
will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Theologically, I can see that
God is all powerful, and we are a small part of a huge universe.

...What does it say to you Holmes? Watson asks.
"Holmes is silent for a moment. 'Watson, you idiot,
'Someone has stolen our tent!'"
