Hi Guys!
It’s Sunday morning, a day for us to unwind and enjoy a well deserved rest after a busy week. You know, as I was thumbing through a book while savouring a cuppa, this particular page attracted my attention.
It throws a challenge to us asking whether we can find something unusual in a given short paragraph! There seemed nothing wrong with it, no matter how many times it was scrutinized by my eyes and the ever cooperating buddy, the brain.
Finally I was forced to give in though normally I don’t admit defeat that easily. I simply couldn’t believe myself when I checked the answer on the last page of the book. It’s truly amazing! How is it possible…? But I learned one thing; at times our very own eyes could deceive us. In short, don’t believe in everything that your eyes see….!
Well! I want you to put your thinking cap on and see whether you can pinpoint the ‘peculiarity’ I'm talking about...!
Here’s the paragraph! Good Luck...!
…………… - : - ………………
Just zap through this paragraph. It is an unusual paragraph. I’m curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing is wrong with it. Syntax and vocabulary look all right…! In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, though you still may not find anything odd. But, if you work at it a bit, you might find out.

PS – I’ve done some minor changes to make the paragraph more interesting.

Hi Prashanth!
Thanks for walking in and dared to take the challenge on the chin.
Well! If you would have only not retorted, I’d have taken you to the
finest restaurant in town for a meal of your choice as a special treat…!
You didn’t get what I’m trying to say, did you?
We’ll meet again, anyway, bro…!
Have a pleasant day ahead, Prashanth.
