Brain Teaser

OK, all your brainiacs, what is unusual about the following paragraph?

This 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. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out. Try to do so without any coaching!

Word "the" isn't used?

You're on the right track.........

No letter E?

You're no fun to play with! :rolleyes:


The letter 'e', which is the most common letter in the English language, does not appear once in the paragraph.

Ka-chow!

OK smart girl, ponder this! :P
