    Dumbell or Dumbbell?

    I feel like Water Boy when told the reason aligators are so aggressive isn't "because of all those teeth and no tooth brush..."

    Microsoft Word says, "Dumbbell" not "Dumbell"

    It just don't look right...

    No Microsoft Word - YOU'RE WRONG! URGGHH...

    You could just say: an exercise weight in the form of a metal bar with a metal disk or ball at each end.
