In honor of Jimmy's podcast with the new leader of the Insurgency, Peter "War on Insulin" Attia, MD, I've gotta introduce the latest in my series of Lego superhero analogies. Attia is younger and considerably more photogenic than Taubes and puts a fresh face on the movement. When Taubes introduced Attia on his blog, I just couldn't help but think "Boy Wonder" ... and it all started to fall into place.
The "Dynamic Duo" of Taubes and Attia will from now on be known as Fatman and Glucagon here at the Asylum! These two shall patrol Glutton City in their Fatmobile protecting its citizens from the dastardly deeds of team CICO.
No analogy would be complete without identifying the everyday alter-egos of these two. In the role of Bruce Wayne, we have none other than Jimmy Moore (has anyone ever seen Taubes and Moore in the same place at the same time?), and in the role of Dick Grayson, we will have Adam Kosloff.
Yours truly, of course, shall play the role of Catwoman ;-) Nah, let's make that Carbwoman!!
Update: I went looking for Lego Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson. Had luck with the first, but not much with the second. Except that I came up with something even better. It seems that Dick Grayson got tired of being Batman's sidekick and struck out on his own as Nightwing. I think this scenario fits Kosloff better ... we'll call him Gateking. So allow me to introduce you to Jimmy Moore, as himself in Bruce Wayne's role, and Gateking! Jimmy is holding on to Gateking's black box for him while he fights off the Calorie Wizards with his pool noodles.
