Stickers! Thanks to homard.net over on flickr for capturing this handsome photo of the sticker collection in StartupSchwag's 16th schwag-bag. If you're a fan of startups, or schwag, but especially if you like startup schwag, you should strongly consider signing on. And if you're bummed about not getting a sticker, the breadpig has instructed me to mail one to you; email me your address.

We just received the bittersweet news. We barely got to know little Breadpig, but he's already been taken home over the weekend. Laura, one of the breadpig legion at the SF SPCA, summarized the our feelings well: I can only hope his new family will allow for the occasional crime fighting in his schedule…. No word yet on whether there will be a Breadpig, Jr.

Behold, breadpig the cat! The first of his kind (as far as we know). We must apologize for some shoddy reporting. The cat the SF/SPCA renamed "Breadpig" is in fact male. Nonetheless, he shouldn't have any trouble finding a home. He is either the life of the party or the laziest one in the room. He's been called a player, but only because of his keen ability to love you and be loved by many, not to mention he can slay a toy mouse like its nobody's business! I couldn't think of a better namesake. What are you waiting for?...

The breadpig is quite pleased: email from the SF SPCAA 2 yr old, black and white cat entered the shelter today and was named "BreadPig". We have only done the physical exam so far, pictures and write ups to follow. The breadpig legion grew one feline stronger today. Alas, the folks at the SF SPCA won't be able to enjoy little BreadPig's company for too long, as she'll undoubtedly be adopted the instant someone lays eyes on her. More on this developing story to come...

Breadpig was invited to the opening of the SF SPCA's magnificent new facility, the Leanne B. Roberts Animal Care Center. Due to a sudden world-saving mission, Alexis & Liz visited the opening in breadpig's stead. As thrilling as it was to see breadpig on the wall, that excitement was easily matched by the sight of the "Barker Family Fund" nearby. We suspect they give exclusively to dog-related causes. For the record, breadpig has no biases toward either the grain or swine non-profit sectors. How did our breaded swine end up with such an honor? Well, that's thanks to you, breadpig...
