Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson go on 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?”

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. | |
Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. | |
Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful, and that we are a small and insignificant part of the universe. |

Holmes is silent for a moment.
“Watson, you idiot!” he says. “Someone has stolen our tent!”
When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ballpoint pens would not work in zero gravity.

The Russians used a pencil.

The doctor replies, “I've been trying to contact you since yesterday.”
A scientist and a philosopher were being chased by a hungry lion. The scientist made some quick calculations, he said “it's no good trying to outrun it, its catching up”.
