&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Funny names are funny: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;#8220;30 Rock&amp;#8221; has always taken (and provided) great pleasure in amusing monikers, whether it&amp;#8217;s Dr. Spaceman, Jeffrey Weinerslav, Wesley Snipes or Floyd DeBarber. And this episode added three terrific ones to that proud, silly tradition: Tracy&amp;#8217;s friend Colin O&amp;#8217;Scopy, Liz&amp;#8217;s alias as Kenneth Toilethole (which also set up Kaylie&amp;#8217;s similar fumbling attempt to invent a name in Jack&amp;#8217;soffice), and, my favorite, Gaylord Felcher. Yes, the last one&amp;#8217;s reminiscent of Greg&amp;#8217;s full name in &amp;#8220;Meet the Parents,&amp;#8221; but in the context of a storyline about standards, practices and double standards, a good dirty joke worked perfectly. (As did the enthusiasm of the actor as he cursed at Kenneth, flipped everyone the bird and otherwise acted very mad with power.) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;m counting this as a positive review.

I&amp;#8217;m going to be on 30 Rock tonight. The whole experience was amazing and getting to do a scene with Tina Fey and Jack McBrayer was surreal. Here&amp;#8217;s a deleted scene from the episode.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;iframe frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/RHNrV8BBezM" width="420"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ok, so that was just a clip of Rusty Staub swattin&amp;#8217; balls all over Shea Stadium.Rusty is one of my favorite Mets.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A few things to take note of.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1) The rockin soundtrack. Fine, it&amp;#8217;s absurd, but I defy you to find a track better suited.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2) There is a YouTube Channel called RustyStaubChannel. That&amp;#8217;s great news for everyone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3)Take a look at how much he chokes up on the bat. You don&amp;#8217;t see guys do that anymore. Choking up and cutting down on your swing is how you stay tough with two strikes. It takes a lack of ego and a love of your team to choke up. Rusty had both.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Man, I love baseball. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;30 Rock, Tonight, 8pm. Enjoy!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://themichaeltorpeywebsite.com/post/18956484001</link><guid>http://themichaeltorpeywebsite.com/post/18956484001</guid><pubDate>Thu, 08 Mar 2012 14:02:00 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>I love that @DianeNeal has the Space Emergency episodes on her...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0eh6zK1eB1qznk6oo1_500.gif"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;I love that @DianeNeal has the Space Emergency episodes on her &lt;a href="http://www.dianeneal.com/Diane_Neal/Space_Emergency.html" target="_blank"&gt;website&lt;/a&gt;.
