This is not a rant. This is a wonderful joke. I wish I knew who to credit, but alas I know not. However, here it is...
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson decide on a camping trip. After pitching the tent and cooking and eating a good meal, they share a bottle of wine, retire for the night and fall asleep.
Some hours later Holmes wakes up and nudges Watson.
"Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see"
Watson rubs the sleep from his eyes and looks up. "Well," he says, "I see millions and millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?" Asks Holmes.
Watson thinks for a moment and replies. "Well, Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially, billions of planets."
"Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo."
"Horologically, it tells me that the time is about three fifteen."
Theologically, it tells me that God is all powerful and we are rather insignificant."
Meteorologically, it tells me that we will have a fine day come morning."
"What does it tell you Holmes?"
Holmes was silent for a moment, then he spoke, "Watson, you idiot. Some bastard has stolen our tent."
