Dumbed Down Down



This entry from the WashingtonTimes.com gave me a good laugh:

    8th grade? That's over the head of the average Dim

    Chuck: Yeah, key word "dim" ;-)

    Brooke: If BO keeps losing independents, all he'll have is his base with their tingly legs.

    Debbie: I thought he had a few of them, but yes, all very young. I'd rather have a little gravitas on my side, but then, BO and I don't agree on anything else, so I'm not surprised.
