LOL -- I was thinking the EXACT same thing, Julie! Knowing they are Grandmothers' names, though, DOES make me feel better. :-)

Not for a middle name, which is often a family name.

Gross and sad:

A representative for Diddy just sent us this statement on his behalf in response to this shocking report from the Humane Society of the US that his fashion company was selling clothes made of dog fur:

"I was completely unaware of the nature of this material, but as soon as we were alerted, the garments were pulled off the Macy's floor and website. I have instructed our outwear licensee to cease the production of any garments using this material immediately. I appreciate the tireless work that the Humane Society does and would like to thank them for bringing attention to this issue."

LOL - I thought you were saying "gross and sad" at the news about Bono getting knighted. I would have agreed with you. Can't stand Bono shoving his ignorant opinion into political affairs.

Go make red things for the Gap, and donate money, but don't think you're more wise than the bazillions of political scientists and scholars out there running the world. I'd love to see Bono run a country, and THEN see where his approval rating falls. His bravado really annoys me.

RE the Diddy clothing line issue. Were they using "dog fur" or "dog pelts"? Big difference. I know people who spin fiber from their dog's fur. It doesn't involve hurting the animal at all as it uses the fur obtained from brushing the dog regularly. Depending on the breed of dog, it spins into a very nice fiber in the same way angora or wool or alpaca or any number of other animal furs spin up.

Now if it's dog pelts then that's quite another matter!

They were using an animal called a "racoon dog" which apparently is part of the dog family. Dont know much about the animal.

The Name "Dog": "Dog" comes from from the Old English word "daga." Although the resemblance to a raccoon is startling, it is not closely related to a raccoon. As you can see by its family name "Canidae," Latin for "dog," this animal is definitely a dog.

Apparently these animals are on the verge of extinction, and are already declared extinct in Japan.

My dog groomer friend just sent me an email with this website: http://www.hsus.org/

She said If you ever wanted to do harm to a person, here's a reason why. The dog they are using in the "fake fur" clothing is tortured,not just killed for their fur. The video is not for the squimish, I couldn't watch it all.

I didn't have any idea what she was talking about and since I didn't want to watch an animal being tortured to death I deleted the email without looking. Then I came here and saw this so I checked out the website. I still can't watch the video though.

My daughter and I watched it but I couldn't finish, I actually felt bile rising up my throat and thought I was going to throw up. How can men torture poor living creatures like that?

I've seen an actual raccoon skun alive for real when out hunting because the dogs had treed another raccoon and the man I was with got in a big hurry. I can only imagine what the video is like.
