Survival Cards Joke

MCj04355640000[1]

The scoutmaster was teaching the scouts about survival in the desert.
'What are the three most important things you should bring with you in case you get lost in the desert?' he asked. Several hands went up, and many important things were suggested such as food, matches, etc.
Then one young scout raised his hand.
'Yes Johnny, what are the three most important things you would bring with you?' asked the Scoutmaster.
Johnny replied, 'A compass, a canteen of water, and a deck of cards.'
'Why's that Johnny?'
Johnny answered, 'The compass is to find the right direction and the water is to prevent dehydration...'
'And what about the deck of cards?' asked the scoutmaster.
'Well, Sir, as soon as you start playing Solitaire, someone is bound to come up behind you and say, 'Put that red nine on top of that black ten!''

Sherlock Holmes Goes Camping
Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson went on a camping trip. After they had settled in for the night,
Holmes nudged Watson awake and said "Watson, look up and tell me what you see".
Watson said "I see a fantastic panorama of countless of stars".
Holmes then said, "And what does that tell you?"
Watson replied, "Astronomically, it suggests to me that if there are billions of other galaxies that have
roughly similar stellar population densities as represented by my view. That potentially trillions of planets
may be associated with such a galactic and stellar population. Allowing for similar chemical distribution
throughout the cosmos, it may be reasonably implied that life-and possibly intelligent life-may well fill
the universe. Also, being a theological believer, it tells me that the vastness of space may be yet another
suggestion of the greatness of God and that we are small and insignificant. And last, meteorologically the blackness of the sky and the crispness of the stellar images tells me that there is low humidity and stable air and therefore we are most likely to enjoy a beautiful day tomorrow."
Watson continued, "Why? What does it tell you Mr. Holmes?"
Sherlock Holmes screamed out, "It's elementary my dear Watson! Someone stole our tent!"
