			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This <a href="http://o2.mindactive.com/bLog/keywords/ad/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Ad">ad</a> has been trending on <a href="http://o2.mindactive.com/bLog/keywords/youtube/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with YouTube">YouTube</a>, so you probably saw it already… unless you live in a cave without a TV or internet connection.  Thought this one was worth sharing, because it is nice yo see a simple low-cost ad can still make you smile.  It is definately a cute ad.</p>
<p>I am currently going thru the 2011 ads, and as the good one surface, I will be sure to share and comment.  This one is really <a href="http://o2.mindactive.com/bLog/keywords/low-budget/" class="st_tag internal_tag" rel="tag" title="Posts tagged with Low Budget">low budget</a>, but the way it is put together is awesome. Enjoy!</p>
