		<description><![CDATA[The only giant panda in Ueno Zoo is dead. It is possible that it&#8217;s out of old age but pandas should never be kept in a glass box for the world to see anyway. They&#8217;re not fishes. Not that it&#8217;s right for fishes.
I have a very soft spot for all mammals, I guess it must [...]]]></description>

The creme de la creme, this is an ad about washing your ass with LooLoo after you&#8217;ve done your poo poo, for god&#8217;s sakes. 
It&#8217;s a Korean ad, this one. But geez.
