 UBIQUITY, n. The gift or power of being in all places at one time, but not in all places at all times, which is omnipresence, an attribute of God and the luminiferous ether only. This important distinction between ubiquity and omnipresence was not clear to the mediaeval Church and there was much bloodshed about it. Certain Lutherans, who affirmed the presence everywhere of Christ's body were known as Ubiquitarians. For this error they were doubtless damned, for Christ's body is present only in the eucharist, though that sacrament may be performed in more than one place simultaneously. In recent times ubiquity has not always been understood --not even by Sir Boyle Roche, for example, who held that a man cannot be in two places at once unless he is a bird.
  Ambrose Bierce

 In fact, one thing that I have noticed . . . is that all of these conspiracy theories depend on the perpetrators being endlessly clever. I think you'll find the facts also work if you assume everyone is endlessly stupid.

 Anything that holds water and fish seems have found a pelican, and even places that don't, ... It's obvious that they are all over the place in areas you wouldn't normally see them.

 That's the thing we focus on as teammates in the dugout. We're amazed that he can channel that out as well as he does. At times, it can get real vicious. I wouldn't want to trade places with him, I can tell you that.
