2 P-listers went on a camping trip. After a good meal
& a bottle of wine they lay down for the night & went to sleep. Some
hours later, P-lister #1 awoke & nudged his faithful companion.
"Look up at the sky & tell me what you see."
"I see millions & millions of stars", P-lister #2 replied.
"What does that tell you?" #1 enquired.
#2 pondered for a minute.
"Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies &
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 & that we are small &
insignificant.
"Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.
"And what does it tell you?"
#1 was silent for a minute, then spoke. "#2, you idiot. Some
bastard has stolen our tent."
