Crazy thing isn't it?

Just taken a chewing gum from the box and it has three pictures on top of it, a car, a house and a train with the words "in the", "at", and "on the" above the respective pictures.

Why does one drive in a car, but travel on a train, one is in both isn't one?

Wait, maybe it's a participation thing...

I'm going home in a bit. Might have a lay down when I get in.

Fantastic isn't it?

Try 'Mother Tongue' by Bill Bryson. Fascinating and hilarious!

Thinking takes no time at all! Surely you can think and do at the same time? I do, I think.
