Most Annoying Joke in The World.
A Must Read!!!
A man is driving down the road when his car breaks down near a
monastery. He goes to the monastery, knocks on the door, and says, "My
car broke down. Do you think I could stay the night?"
The monks
graciously accept him, fed him dinner, even fix his car. As the man
tries to fall asleep, he hears a strange sound. A sound unlike anything
he's ever heard before. The Sirens that
nearly seduced Odysseus into crashing his ship comes to his mind. He
doesn't sleep that night. He tosses and turns trying to figure out what
could possibly be making such a seductive sound..
The next
morning, he asked the monks what the sound was, but they say, "We can't
tell you. You're not a monk." Distraught, the man is forced to leave..
Years later, after never being able to forget that sound, the man goes back to the monastery and
pleads for the answer again. The monks reply, "We can't tell you.
You're not a monk." The man says, "If the only way I can find out what
is making that beautiful sound is to become a monk, then
please, make me a monk."
The monks reply, "You must travel the earth and tell us how many blades of grass there are and the
exact number of grains of sand. When you find these answers, you will have become a monk."
The man sets about his task. After years of searching he returns as a
gray-haired old man and knocks on the door of the monastery. A
monk answers. He is taken before a gathering of all the monks..
"In my quest to find what makes that beautiful sound, I av traveled the earth and have found what you asked for: By design, the
world is in a state of perpetual change. Only God knows what you ask. All a man can know is himself,
and only then if he is honest and reflective and willing to strip away self deception."
The monks reply, "Congratulations. You have become a monk. We shall now
show you the way to the mystery of the sacred sound." The monks lead
the man to a wooden door, where the head monk says, "The
sound is beyond that door."
The monks gave him the key, and he opens the door. Behind the wooden door is another door made of stone. The man is given
the key to the stone door and he opens it, only to find a door made of ruby..
And so it went that he needed keys to doors of emerald, pearl and
diamond. Finally, they came to a door made of solid gold. The sound has
become very clear and definite. The monks say, "This is the last key to
the last door." The man is apprehensive to no end. His life's wish is
behind that door! With trembling hands, he unlocks the door, turns the
knob, and slowly pushes the door open. Falling to his knees, he is
utterly
amazed to discover the source of that haunting and seductive sound..

But, of course, I can't tell you what it is, because you're not a MONK..
