			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While watching Sunday Night Football last night (ridiculous game) I noticed that good old Kris Kringle stars in a few commercials this season. I was multitasking so I didn&#8217;t have my eyes glued to the TV, but these two stuck out.</p>
<p>The first one comes from Mercedes.  They&#8217;re alleging that Santa rides his bike around and works for quality control at a Mercedes factory, which is attached to his home office. No wonder Mercedes are so expensive, they ship from the North Pole?</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" 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/gGJLgR9RM7Y&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gGJLgR9RM7Y&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>When Santa isn&#8217;t busy assuring quality at Mercedes, he&#8217;s shopping for flatscreens at Sears (with the reindeer). I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;d be allowed to bring my weiner dog into Sears, let alone 12 reindeer.</p>
<p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0yoD-qIzICo&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0yoD-qIzICo&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p>
<p>But be careful out there. That Sears Research Center might not be as simple as it seems. <a href="http://consumerist.com/2009/12/i-found-it-impossible-to-buy-a-ps3-at-sears.html">The Consumerist</a> has a story about a woman who wasted 4 hours at various Sears locations trying to find a PS3.</p>
<p>All Santa commercials aside, who doesn&#8217;t love ugly sweaters?</p>
