eweissenbach: A young man desired spirtual enlightenment and decided to join a monastery high up in the mountains. One of the rules required the vow of silence. However a monk was allowed to utter two words once a year.
During the first year the monk found that he was being inundated with water because of a hole in the roof which covered his bedroom. When he appeared before the Abbott, at the end of the first year, and was allowed to speak he said "roof repair" sure enough the roof was repaired.
During the second year he endured a very cold bedroom because his window was broken. Again at the year end he appeared before the Abbott and uttered his two words "window broke" Again the repairs were made and the monk now enjoyed a warm bedroom
during his third year he suffered constantly with backaches because his mattress was lumpy. On the third year of his appearing in front of the Abbott, the Abbottsaid to the monk, "please speak", and the monk replied lumpy mattress wherein the Abbott rose from his chair and said that's all you do is complain ( the b word), complain complain, that's all you do is complain. I said compain because we may have mixed company and my mother taught me to always be a gentlemen. I guess the story is funnier when your drinking a few brewskies
