The Ultimate BFF

Just need someone to talk to? hang out with? A good friend is never far away!

Willie Bean Roscoe P. Coltrane is not your average candidate. He tells no lies, doesn't cheat on taxes, and the only thing he's ever stolen is a soup bone.

Acres of Cakes

Wowie, wow, wow! Flickr has a cupcake photo pool! Several, actually.

(The cupcakes pictured here were done by a Miami shop called Cupcakes Nouveau.)

Lost your mojo?

Well run dry?

Creativity on tap.

Happy Independence Day!

And then there were four...

Well, hey! The happiness pub was getting a little lonely, so without further adieu, I'm pleased to introduce Beezer Numero Quatre. She's hip, she's fly, she's the apple of my eye. And she's oh-so-good at finding awesome bandwith. Raise your mugs to b.n.q. -- this round's on me!
