A new Monk arrives at a Monastery....

[winsor68]

A new monk arrives at the monastery and is assigned to help the other

 

monks in copying the old texts by hand.

 

 

 

He notices that they are copying copies, not the original books. He mentions

 

to the head monk that, if there's an error in the first copy, then that error

 

will be continued to all other copies.

 

 

 

The head monk thinks this is a valid observation, so he goes down into the

 

cellar with one of the copies to check it against the original.

 

 

 

Hours later, the monks hear sobbing coming from the cellar. They find the

 

old monk leaning over one of the original books crying.

 

"What's wrong?" one asks.

 

 

 

The old monk sobs, "The word is 'celebrate' ."
