LaserMonks Offer Prayer, Printer Cartridges

Minnesotan writes "According to a Twincities.com article: If you need discounted inkjet- or laser-printer cartridges, Wisconsin's LaserMonks say they'll give you a doozy of a deal while you 'support prayer for the world'. The Cistercian priests - yes, they're actual Catholic monks - oversee a novel e-commerce enterprise out of their rural abbey. Proceeds go to maintain the monastery and finance charitable works around the world."

Re:It gets weirder

I heard some of these monasteries actually make money off brewing beer!

There is a great and long tradition of Trappist monastaries brewing beer. The Belgian trappist ales are some of the finest in existence. If you like your beer dark, rich and potent then there is nothing finer. The best known are the Chimay ales which are truly excellent, especially the chocolatey Trippel.

Goodness I think its time to leave work and find God at the bottom of a bottle...
