[Magdalen] TEC bishop fatally hits bicyclist in hit and run?

[John Robison]

The Baltimore Sun is not, at least for many locals, not all that great a
news source. Hasn't been since the Tribune bought it at least. Note that
she's described as a "high ranking Bishop."

Anyway, nothing I said has been contradicted in the story you cite. From
information I have heard, this seems to be a matter of texting. It may not
be.

"Among the repulsions of atheism for me has been its drastic
uninterestingness as an intellectual position." - John Updike

"There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life:
The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that
often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading
to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with
the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."  ~John Rogers
