...first bid for immortality came for allowing 12 walks in a seven-inning game (sounds promising for the homeschool heroes so far) but his other foray into the record books was for giving up the fewest hits in a seven inning contest--zero, zip, nothing...
...Washington. It is simply done. Anyone at the White House can be reached by writing on a post card or letter envelope the name of the addressee and Washington, D.C. 20500. Any Senator can be reached by an address that includes only his name and Washington, D.C., 20510. The ZIP code for the entire House of Representatives...

Ali has lost the zip of his youth, if we are to judge from his two lackluster performances against Norton, and Frazier was pathetically outgunned against Foreman...
