Jam of the moment

I really love this song. I'm a sucker for a good drum beat and a piano. So enjoy.

Tweet

OK, so...for as much crap as I have talked about Twitter in the past...I now find myself completely wrapped in it. I created my own name separate from this blog (just because I know Jess would not sanction frequent updates about Matt Ryan @McCluca...even tho that is pretty much what the blog is...oh well). Follow me @thekdeluca and Jess @fiore_957.

Vegas snipets

OK, so we're not going to tell you everything that happened in Vegas. Some of it is NSFW (jk of course) and some you guys could follow on our Twitter. But here are a few highlights.

* Our hotel was freakin' awesome...stay at Paris. Great hotel bar...
* Discounted tickets to the Beatles LOVE show at the Mirage. A-MAZ-ING. Like no joke.
* Food. Really good Mexican (gigantic drinks) @ Planet Hollywood (buffet was good too).
* Jess winning a bunch of money on penny slots and craps...Katy not so much.
* Spending a ridiculous evening with four guys who worked for Richard Petty Motorsports including a member of Kasey Kahne's pit crew and a guy who sometimes is a spotter for Elliot Sadler. And a guy who does marketing for them who really likes giving high fives.

I think that's all for now. Will update if there are more things I have forgotten.

Mid-week Man Candy

We are back. Hope you followed the Twitter. If you did, let us know and maybe we'll consider doing more stuff like it in the future.



Here's to you Jon Favreau (the speechwriter, not the actor). I've been wanting to post him for awhile just so everyone could bask in his hotness, but I waited for an opportune moment...and Obama's speech last night gives me the perfect opportunity. While I didn't actually hear the speech since I was on a plane back from Vegas, I'm pretty sure it was awesome because everything he does is awesome. He's 27-years-old and is Obama's director of speechwriting. He's pretty much what I want to be. So here's to you, Jon. Keep doing what you're doing.

McCluca in Vegas - Twitter-fied

OK, the moment has finally arrived. We are less than 12 hours from a glorious McCluca reunion on our flight from Houston to Vegas! Woo.

So this means the real test of our Twitter feed. As you can see, we have it linked to the blog on the right had side so you can keep up to date with what we are doing etc etc. You can also follow us on the actual Twitter site if you want.

We want you to enjoy our excitement. The end.

Mid-week Man Candy

Before I start, I have to mention that last Friday was our one-year blog anniversary. And we forgot. Oops. So thank you, everyone, for reading. A year ago, I was pretty sure we would get bored of blogging after a couple of weeks, but this milestone just proves that this probably was a good idea after all.

Anyway...


This week's Man Candy is Jon Hamm. This marks the second time one of Liz Lemon's boyfriends has been honored in Man Candy, and that is because she has excellent taste in men (except maybe Dennis). How can you not love a man who bakes? Jon Hamm is very handsome and very funny. I don't really like Mad Men, but he was a great SNL host and I always appreciate a good James Mason impression. So although we know he's only booked for a few episodes, we wish he could stick around 30 Rock a little longer than Floyd, who we miss very much.

SkitchKD (11:46:05 PM): i would like a battle bt jon hamm and floyd
ffiore957 (11:46:16 PM): what kind of battle?

DISCLAIMER: Katy knew this blog would last...or at least it would just turn in to Luca sans Mcc

Vegas on the brain

If I were to submit something to Eff My Life

Today, I fell down the stairs and sprained my ankle. I hit my face on the ground and my fake tooth fell out. Now I look like a hillbilly. FML.

**DISCLAIMER** This did sorta happen...just like three months ago.

Jam of the moment

We all know that Jess and I LOVE the Killers. So this doesn't really require a lot of explanation. This song is just so catchy and so awesome. If y'all haven't really listened to Day & Age yet, then you are missing out foos.

Mid-week Man Candy

I want to preface this update with this...VEGAS IN 10 DAYS!!!!!

... that is all



Sooo we do have a list and a general order of who we are supposed to run when...but I saw "He's Just Not That in to You" Monday and decided to break all the rules. So here's to you Justin Long. You are the most adorable computer pitcher EVER. Your nerdy adorableness (which I feel I (Katy) reference a lot when doing man candy posts...obviously I have a type) made your character in the movie just lovable and awesome. I can remember the days back when you were on "Ed." Ahh memories. So here's to you, Justin.

The District

Newsweek is awesome. I love this video a) because I love The City and b) because I am a geeky political nerd. Muchas gracias to Lauren for enlightening me!

Oui oui

ffiore957 (11:41:21 PM): you just added eric ripert, so i get like 5 freebies
SkitchKD (11:41:26 PM): no way!
SkitchKD (11:41:28 PM): not fair
ffiore957 (11:41:41 PM): haha
SkitchKD (11:41:44 PM): he's french
SkitchKD (11:41:46 PM): he's automatically hot
ffiore957 (11:41:52 PM): he's also about 70
SkitchKD (11:42:22 PM): he's like 43
ffiore957 (11:42:27 PM): i know, i looked it up too
SkitchKD (11:42:33 PM): it says 43-44
ffiore957 (11:42:46 PM): because wikipedia is the most reliable source
ffiore957 (11:42:53 PM): i could change it to 70 right now

Mid-week Man Candy

Another week, another major oversight in Man Candy history. How could we ever forget Ewan McGregor? He has made some excellent movies (especially Moulin Rouge and Shallow Grave) and he has been really good in some terrible movies (I'm talking about you, The Phantom Menace). He's also a pretty good singer, and he has an awesome Scottish accent. I'm not ashamed to admit this: I (Jess) own one or two of his Obi-Wan Kenobi action figures. You know what, we're all friends here, I can tell the truth - it's more like 10. OK, fine. It's actually 2 boxes of stuff in a closet at my parents' house and one action figure on my desk at work. But that's only because he's such a great actor. So thanks, Ewan, for being so awesome that my nerdiness cannot hide.
