Canon and Brother Copiers ......
« on: 30 July 2009, 22:13:34 »

A young monk arrives at the monastery. He is
assigned to helping the other monks in copying
the old canons and laws of the church by hand.

He notices, however, that all of the monks are
copying from copies, not from the original
manuscript. So, the new monk goes to the head
Abbot to question this, pointing out that if
someone made even a small error in the first
copy, it would never be picked up! In fact, that
error would be continued in all of the
subsequent copies.

The head monk,says,'We have been copying from
the copies for centuries, but you make a good
point, my son.'

He goes down into the dark caves underneath the
monastery where the original manuscripts are
held as archives in a locked vault that hasn't
been opened for hundreds of years.

Hours go by and nobody sees the old Abbot.


So, the young monk gets worried and goes down
to look for him. He sees him banging his head
against the wall and wailing.

'We missed the R ! We missed the R ! We missed
the R !'

His forehead is all bloody and bruised and he
is sobbing uncontrollably. The young monk asks
the old abbot, 'What's wrong, father?'

With A choking voice, the old abbot replies,
'The word was...

'CELEBRATE!!!'
