Sorry, as long as The Seattle Times has an editorial page, I will only disdain it. The day they abolish the editorial page, I will once again subscribe.
Having spent a portion of my childhood and all of my teenage years in Longview-Kelso (colloquially known as "the armpit of Southwest Washington"), I can say, without hesitation, that many of the locals who reside there are in fact pretty stupid; not all mind you, but definitely a lot. The really smart ones tend to leave at the first opportunity.
Sometimes you just wake up and nothing interesting has happened in the past 24 hours, you know?
But the show must go on!
