Well apart from not me obviously;) ...




A new monk arrives at a monastery. He is assigned to the other monks to copy all the old texts by hand.

He notices, however, that they are copying from copies and not the originals.

So he goes to the head monk and pointsa out that ifd there were an error in the first copy then it would be in every copy since.

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

So off he goes to check the original scripts.

Hours go by and no one sees him so the new monk ventures down to the cellar to find him.

Upon entering, he hears sobs coming from the back of the cellar. He finds the old monk leaning over one of the original books crying.

Asked what's wrong, the old monk replies in a choked voice

"You were right my son, it says celebrate"

So you couldn't become a monk ? But maybe if you became a nun we could all try get into the habit. :D :D :D
