[H. Burns]

A group of monks is copying the laws of the church by hand.  A new monk notices that they are copying from copies, not from the original manuscript.  He tells the head monk.

“If there was an error in the first copy, every copy after that would have the same error.”

The head monk says, “Good point,” and goes to get the original manuscript.

Later, the young monk finds the head monk with his head on the desk crying:
     “ They forgot the R!”
     “ They forgot the R!”

The young monk asks, “Father, what’s wrong?”

Choking back tears, the old monk replies,
    “The word is celebRate!
       celebRate!”
