Title: Never copy a copy
Post by: Den on July 29, 2012, 21:45
The young monk’s first day.
 
 
 
 
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 f**king R !"
 
 
 
 
His forehead is all bruised and he is
 
crying uncontrollably. The young monk
 
asks the old abbot, 'What's wrong, father?'
 
With a choking voice, the old abbot replies,
 
'The word was...
 
 
 
CELEB R ATE’
