Cash Test Dummies

As if British teeth weren’t sad enough, the Globe and Mail‘s Elizabeth Renzetti describes another unsettling visual from the London Book fair:

Meanwhile, just outside, Dr. Dummy — some poor schmo stuck inside a yellow-and-black foam suit to advertise Wiley’s hit series of guides — laid his oversize Dummy’s head on a bench for a rest. .

Somehow, though, this image is tragic and poignant, but also inspiring: Despite the indencency of being named “Dummy,” Dummy became a doctor. And yet, he still hasn’t found the cure for having a big, yellow foam head.
