The Lone Ranger and Tonto were camping in the desert, hot on the trail of the Butch Cavendish Gang. When it got dark, they fell asleep. Some hours later, The Lone Ranger woke his faithful Indian companion. "Tonto, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."
Tonto replies, "Me see millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?" asked The Lone Ranger.
Tonto ponders for a minute. "Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Chronologically, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three a.m. Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all powerful and we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What it tell you Kemosabe?"
The Lone Ranger is silent for a moment. Then he says, "Tonto, you idiot, it tells me someone has stolen our tent!"
