Joke

This joke was one of the winning jokes submitted to the Laughlab experiment.

Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson were going camping. They pitched their tent under the stars and went to sleep. Sometime in the middle of the night Holmes woke Watson up and said: “Watson, look up at the stars, and tell me what you see.”

Watson replied: “I see millions and millions of stars.”

Holmes said: “and what do you deduce from that?”

Watson replied: “Well, if there are millions of stars, and if even a few of those have planets, it’s quite likely there are some planets like Earth out there. And if there are a few planets like Earth out there, there might also be life.”

And Holmes said: “Watson, you idiot, it means that somebody stole our tent.”

A really interesting website! I didn't know the Laughlab and I'm willing to use my English to learn how different can be the humour across the globe...:)

Oh!
Unfortunately, there's a certain ressemblance between Watson and me, although I'd rather be so clever as Sherlock..
I didn't realize what was happening 'till the end...:)
I'll have to visit that page....
