When a Pope died and was as expected admitted into heaven, he was received by a high power reception committee. After a whirlwind tour and was told that he could enjoy any of the myriad of recreations for eternity, he decided that he would rather read all of the ancient original texts of the Holy Scriptures. So he spent time learning ancient languages. And after becoming Linguistic enough, he sat at a remote corner in the library and began to pour over every version of the scriptures, working back from most recent "Easy Reading" to the original scripts.
All of a sudden there was a heart rendering scream from his corner of the library. The Angels came running in, only to find the Pope huddled in his chair, sobbing and muttering to himself, "An 'R'! An 'R'! The scribes left out the 'R'." A particularly concerned Angel took him aside, offered a soothing comfort, and asked what the problem was. After collecting his wits, the Pope sobbed once more and said, "It's the letter 'R'! They left out the 'R'! The word was supposed to be CELEBRATE!"
