A young boy enters the local barber shop where the barber whispers to his customer, “This is the dumbest kid in the world. I'll prove it to you.” The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then calls the boy over, shows him his choices and asks, “Which do you want, son?” The boy takes the quarters and leaves. “What did I tell you?” said the barber. “That kid never learns!” Later, as the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store. “Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?” The boy licked his cone and replied, “Because the day I take the dollar, he'll stop the offers!”

Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson went on a murder case and had to camp. After a tasty meal and a bottle of wine they lay down for the night. Several hours later Holmes awoke "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see." Watson replied, "I see millions and millions of stars." "What does that reveal to you?" Watson pondered for a minute. "Astronomically, tells me that there are millions of galaxies and billions of planets. I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Horologically, I deduce that the time is a quarter past three. Meteorologically, I forecast we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. What else does it tell you?" Holmes was silent then spoke. "Watson, you idiot. Someone has stolen our tent right underneath our noses."
