...traveling in. When it is put to rest, we will rediscover the human Jesus who was lost in abstract theological gymnastics.

But O'Neill really couldn't hit the floor with a bag of shamrocks--he used to foul-tip everything near the strike zone until he finally walked (hence the nickname, which was later passed on to the Speaker of the House, who is likewise...
