Dog Houses For Rich Dogs

The dog houses in this article are nicer than most of the house around town! Click here to see what people with dogs will do when they have money and don’t really know what to spend it on – LOL.

The Tone Matrix

I got this link from a friend – warning, it’s really addictive, but funky and cool.

Here’s another good/weird blog link: Craftastrophe. Because not all crafts are cute and suitable for general audiences. Or understandable. Or useful. Or g-rated. Oh, and the front page is “safe for work”, but the full photos on the individual post pages might not be – you’ve been warned!

Away From The Cupcakes & Spaghetti Cat

For the last few hours I’ve been laughing just THINKING about this video. I found it on Cake Wrecks (also a hilarious blog – go see!) – it would be weird enough with the creepy music and the expression on the dog’s face, but then there’s the inexplicable ending that, well, see for yourself!
