> "Do you know them?" Dr. Watson asked. "No", Holmes replied,

> "Good Lord, Holmes, how in the world did you know all that?"

> "Elementary, my dear Watson. The nun ate the banana by holding
> it one hand and using the fingers of the other hand to properly
> break the fruit into small pieces."
>
> "The prostitute", he continued, "grabbed with both hands and
> crammed the whole thing into her mouth."

> "Amazing!" Watson exclaimed. "But how did you know the third
> was a newlywed?"
>
> "Because she held it one hand and pushed her head toward it
> with the other."
