So, my grammar has been leaving something to be desired lately, but I still feel like I know prepositions. Personally. I mean, I'm engaged with prepositions all the time, as is everyone else, and I think we owe it to them to use the correct preposition in all situations--or at least an appropriate one.

I suppose if I didn't have so much time on my hands right now, I wouldn't even notice. But what does it mean to have "the last straw of Wal-Mart?" People make straws all the time. I don't think we'll ever run out.

Also, thanks to Matthew Malaprop, my eyes have been opened to how appropriate it is to "preposition" someone as opped to "propositioning" them. Over, over, under, around, in, in, in, IN.

We had a good laugh about that.
