I don't care who you are, you don't end a sentence in a proposition. Ever.
My mom likes me to.
Nope. Sorry. Doesn't work.
This book is full of retardisms just like that. Don't purchase it unless you're being quizzes on its specific contents as our professor did. But that's probably only because she's foreign and can't speak English anyway.
Gotta love the university system. :D

I ordered it for my son, he's taking a Journalism course. He says it's a great resource, interesting, and will keep it after the course has ended. Negative: Much too expensive.
