Mute

A discussion at the dinner table randomly turned to monks.

Brother 1: Aren't monks not allowed to talk?

Brother 2: Um... I think you mean mimes.

The scary part is, they are both right. How do you randomly come to the subject of monks over dinner?

I think that you should audioblog...podcast, if you will...haha but that would be hard to always carry something around to record stuff like this.

I was wondering just how that topic came up too!

Monks can't talk????

Brother 1's gf was telling us about these nuns that make cheese, and how they each have a job, and one nun had to hoist herself up into trees to trim them, that was her job. And then we were wondering if monks had the same system... yeah

wierd, I didn't know nuns made cheese or climbed trees...how do they climb a tree in that dress/uniform/whatever?

I can picture it now and it looks ridiculous in my head!
