Default I liked my play at lot more before than now

BB is not a complete donk, he is a little loose preflop, is reasonably agressive postflop.

I have hit a pretty good run of cards and have been raising like crazy. Also there was a fish to my right until about 6 hands ago that just sucked

Party Poker 0.50/1.00 Hold'em <font color="#0000FF">(6 handed)</font> link

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: (8.00 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, UTG folds, Hero calls, SB folds.

Turn: (6.50 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, Hero calls.

River: (8.50 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>

Final Pot: 12.50 BB.

Any read on the players that ARE in this hand?

Against an unknown c/r on the flop? Call the raise, hoping to keep SB in, then raise a safe turn (in this case, the 2:diamonds: counts as safe). If 3-bet, call down.

The more I look at it, I don't hate the donktastic river raise, but I think as a general rule you want to me more straightforward than this. This reeks of trip deuces or sixes full.

SB is a massive fish
UTG is your normal 60 vpip passive player, he is a little smarter postflop than SB

How often do you expect to win the pot when your river raise is called? This is the question you need to ask yourself when you make a raise like this.

I put BB on 66,QT,QJ,QK,QA. Maybe Q9 but I think that would be pushing it. So it looks about 50/50. My orignal gut feeling was that I was still ahead after the flop c/r and on the river I didn't think there was any way he could've 3bet me, so I went for it.

The hand range you put him on seems quite broad. Do you really think he would c/r a pre-flop raiser with qt and qj...?

And the river raise? - What kind of hands do you put him on there?

*grunch*

Preflop: Word, fine.

Flop: Check-raise from a high VPIP player on a pretty harmless board with TPGK: I'd probably 3-bet here, and check-call down to a cap. Possible you are against 66, which is unfortunate, but I think the majority of the time you are still ahead here.
