Our blog neighbour joins in

I clicked on the "next blog" button and met some dude called Wooster, who amongst other things gets weird with candles and ipods - each to their own. But he must have e-overheard us, and I quote him...

"Heard this from an NDTV news reporter as he was covering the bus service from Srinagar-Muzaffarabad that started off:

"....the security as usual remained unprecedented...."

Now 'unprecedented' ought to imply something that has never been paralleled. Something that hasn't happened before. And 'remain' implies that something hasn't changed, or rather stayed the same. So we have a security cover at a level that has never been paralleled, but stayed the same. Hmmm."

Someone tell him that something can start off as better than anything else and remain that way.
