Joke of the week [399 = year 8, #35] unhappy monk  (March 8, 2010 - March 14, 2010)

A man joins a Trappist order and is told that he is allowed to say just two words every five years. After five years he speaks his two words to his superiors. "Bed hard," he says. He is promised the problem will be looked into. Another five years pass. This time his two words are: "Food cold." Again his superiors promise to take care of the problem. Five years later his two words are "I quit." His superiors look at one another wearily. "We're not the least bit surprised. You've done nothing but complain for the last fifteen years!"
