&lt;p&gt;Elaine is very talented.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://elainecarroll.tumblr.com/post/44851159/im-not-really-an-impressions-kind-of-a-performer"&gt;elainecarroll&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;I’m not really an impressions kind of a performer, but I had to put this together as part of a larger project.  So here you have it - the Olsen twins.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Elaine’s always been one of the most talented performers I’ve ever known. Until now I never knew about her uncanny knack for impressions. Hysterical!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fucking hilarious.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/44871923</link><guid>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/44871923</guid><pubDate>Tue, 05 Aug 2008 21:01:48 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Hamlet- Facebook News Feed Addition</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog.rocketboom.com/post/44225943/hamlet-facebook-news-feed-addition"&gt;rocketboom&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Horatio thinks he saw a ghost.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hamlet thinks it’s annoying when your uncle marries your mother right after your dad dies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The king thinks Hamlet’s annoying.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Laertes thinks Ophelia can do better.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hamlet’s father is now a zombie.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center"&gt;- - - -&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The king poked the queen.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The queen poked the king back.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hamlet and the queen are no longer friends.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Marcellus is pretty sure something’s rotten around here.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hamlet became a fan of daggers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center"&gt;- - - -&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Polonius says Hamlet’s crazy … crazy in love!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Rosencrantz, Guildenstern, and Hamlet are now friends.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hamlet wonders if he should continue to exist. Or not.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hamlet thinks Ophelia might be happier in a convent.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ophelia removed “moody princes” from her interests.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hamlet posted an event: A Play That’s Totally Fictional and In No Way About My Family&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The king commented on Hamlet’s play: “What is wrong with you?”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Polonius thinks this curtain looks like a good thing to hide behind.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Polonius is no longer online.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center"&gt;- - - -&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hamlet added England to the Places I’ve Been application.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The queen is worried about Ophelia.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ophelia loves flowers. Flowers flowers flowers flowers flowers. Oh, look, a river.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ophelia joined the group Maidens Who Don’t Float.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Laertes wonders what the hell happened while he was gone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align="center"&gt;- - - -&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The king sent Hamlet a goblet of wine.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The queen likes wine!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The king likes … oh crap.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The queen, the king, Laertes, and Hamlet are now zombies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Horatio says well that was tragic.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fortinbras, Prince of Norway, says yes, tragic. We’ll take it from here.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Denmark is now Norwegian.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I know I don’t have a big Tumblr following, and, seriously, I’m okay with that.  So I’m reaching out to you loyal few.  I’m putting together my wedding playlist - no dj, just me, my ipod, and a big honkin’ itunes card - and I’m in need of suggestions.  If you know me, you know I’m not playing, say, the electric slide, nor am I looking to impress everybody there with obscure indie bands.  I’m just looking for wonderful music - gorgeous music - that isn’t sad.  This is turning out to be a much more difficult task than expected.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;So, all that said, hit me up with suggestions.  The thing I’m most lacking is danceable stuff.  To give you a sense of tone, we’re dancing our first dance to “God Only Knows,” off, of course, potentially the greatest record of all time, Pet Sounds.  We’re giving away Groucho glasses as favors.  And I’m not playing Journey.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I will love you forever if you reblog this. Seriously.  Ask around about me - I’m loyal as hell.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Send suggestions to kevin@fullcircletheatre.com.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Thank you!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/44138060</link><guid>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/44138060</guid><pubDate>Wed, 30 Jul 2008 19:50:52 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>The thing that kills me about textual humor is that it’s...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://media.tumblr.com/GJzDoLgb6btlefnpK5BYOSWG_r1_500.png"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The thing that kills me about textual humor is that it’s so rare for the rhythm to be perfect.  Maxwell may be the unappreciated king of comedy.</description><link>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/43447714</link><guid>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/43447714</guid><pubDate>Thu, 24 Jul 2008 20:21:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>via oomsa.com</title><description>&lt;img src="http://media.tumblr.com/GJzDoLgb6bsbcccphOL1TcQL_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;via &lt;a href="http://oomsa.com/files/admin/66_pics_101960.jpg"&gt;oomsa.com&lt;/a&gt;</description><link>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/43336708</link><guid>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/43336708</guid><pubDate>Wed, 23 Jul 2008 22:51:49 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Frances Trombly » Receipt (Publix), 2008</title><description>&lt;a href="http://francestrombly.com/receipt-publix-2008/"&gt;Frances Trombly » Receipt (Publix), 2008&lt;/a&gt;: This is incredibly beautiful.</description><link>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/43065383</link><guid>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/43065383</guid><pubDate>Mon, 21 Jul 2008 20:32:02 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>I’m finally home!</title><description>&lt;img src="http://media.tumblr.com/GJzDoLgb6bf0gt3mAai4EX3r_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;I’m finally home!</description><link>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/42237276</link><guid>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/42237276</guid><pubDate>Mon, 14 Jul 2008 15:20:46 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Bits of fireworks are spread all over my balcony at the hotel. ...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://media.tumblr.com/GJzDoLgb6b3bx6dotGlwOEh8_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Bits of fireworks are spread all over my balcony at the hotel.  Turns out the Fourth of July is a lot better if you’re a little afraid for your life during the display.</description><link>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/41195627</link><guid>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/41195627</guid><pubDate>Sun, 06 Jul 2008 11:08:38 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Ah, summertime with the Film Academy.</title><description>&lt;a href="http://lolnyfa.tumblr.com"&gt;Ah, summertime with the Film Academy.&lt;/a&gt;</description><link>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/40716925</link><guid>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/40716925</guid><pubDate>Wed, 02 Jul 2008 13:35:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>via www.geekalerts.com</title><description>&lt;img src="http://media.tumblr.com/GJzDoLgb6av1babpF7sMXVha_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;via &lt;a href="http://www.geekalerts.com/u/pac-man-board.jpg"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.geekalerts.com"&gt;www.geekalerts.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</description><link>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/40454722</link><guid>http://kevinlaibson.tumblr.com/post/40454722</guid><pubDate>Mon, 30 Jun 2008 15:49:40 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Today was the first time I got a chance to say it.</title><description>Them: Oh, how wonderful.
