Holmes & Watson
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson went on a camping trip. After a good meal and a bottle of wine, they lay down for the night and went to sleep. Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful friend.
"Watson, look up and tell me what you see."
Watson replied, "I see millions and millions of stars."
"What does that tell you?", Holmes ask,
Watson pondered for a minute. "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. Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful and that we are small and insignificant. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Why, what does it tell YOU?"
Holmes was silent for a minute, then spoke. "Watson, you fool. Some jerk has stolen our tent."
Ode to an RV Parts Sales man
I work behind the counter
In an RV service store
Sometimes I'm called a genius
Sometimes I'm called much more.
I claim I'm no technician
yet when the job goes sick
the technician comes to me and asks:
"What makes this darn thing tick?"
I'm supposed to know the numbers
of bolts and nuts and gears
for every darn RV
that's made for forty years.
I'm an engineer and machinist
and what not, oh my Lord!
I'm supposed to be an Edison
Combined with Henry Ford.
But life would be a pleasure
and I'd grin from ear to ear
If only the customer would tell me
the model, make and year!!!!!!
