			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This holiday season, Old Navy premiered this TV commercial for a one day sale on Swanky Tanks. You know, tank tops (in December?) that some poor 3rd world kid spent an hour bedazzling. What&#8217;s remarkable about it is that it&#8217;s an entirely sexist ad. Purely aimed at getting the attention of women and girls by using a group of  shirtless, muscular, handsome men dancing on stairs wearing nothing but tight black jeans and a candy cane. Here watch this for a moment.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="350" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="play" value="false" /><param name="loop" value="false" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/LvzIZ0cKh7k" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/LvzIZ0cKh7k" loop="false" play="false"></embed></object></p>
<p>See what I mean? Those poor boys are being sex-ploited and forced to expose their hunky, muscled, bare chests and tight bodies for nothing more than women to ogle at. It&#8217;s terrible.</p>
<p>If you agree, or disagree, leave a comment.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For Christmas Chris&#8217;s step-dad sent us a care package full of treats for Rumble. Oh my god! We never have to buy dog treats again I think. There were so many! (Thanks Dave!) And his mom slipped in a nice box of her homemade shortbread cookies. They were delicious and Chris showed a great amount of restraint and made them last 2 days.</p>
<p>One of the other gifts in the box was a super nice (simple) coat for Rumble. We&#8217;ve expressed to Dave before that Rumble hates getting wet and with Vancouver Winter upon is, tis the season to be wet.</p>
<p>So we put the coat on Rumble and he froze. No surprise there, he doesn&#8217;t handle change or clothing very well. We&#8217;ve shown video of him in boots before. Have a look&#8230; This is what happened with the coat.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="350" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7K5jtemYDL0" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7K5jtemYDL0"></embed></object></p>
<p>So what&#8217;s the miracle you ask?</p>
<p>That was exactly a week ago. As of now, he&#8217;s actually walking with his coat on!</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="350" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/J9YZwZLpUzk" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/J9YZwZLpUzk"></embed></object></p>
<p>Sadly, this proves something bad. It means that anything Rumble doesn&#8217;t know and &#8220;can&#8217;t&#8221; learn is either our fault, or simply because he&#8217;s hard headed. But that&#8217;s not news to anyone who met him.</p>
