Batman and Robin go off camping in the desert. They set up their tent and sleep. Some hours later, Batman wakes his faithful friend.
"Robin, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."
Robin replies:" I see millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?" asks Batman.
Robin 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 about a quarter past three.
Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant.
Meteorologically, it seems we may have a beautiful day tomorrow.
What does it tell you, Batman?"
Batman is silent for a moment, and then speaks: "Robin, you impractical nitwit, it tells me that someone has stolen our tent!"
