Title: Monks
Post by: John9362 on March 13, 2009, 09:18:40 PM

Monastery Life

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 theR!
We missed theR!
We missed theR!'
His forehead is all bloody and 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...















CELEBRATE!!!'

Don't they have a link here to click and find out which jokes have been used already?

Next we're gonna hear about the atheist that meets the Lochness Monster.


I told that one a while ago.


Anyway, this atheist was fishing when god showed up and said "you're going to hell for missing church all of these years".  The man said help, anyone.  Well, the Lochness Moster showed up and said "I thought you didn't believe in me".  He replied, "a second ago I didn't believe in go. . .

Oh man, I got the whole joke backwards!!
