Peanuts Anyone?

A tour bus driver is driving with a bus load of seniors down a highway when he is tapped on his shoulder by a little old lady.

She offers him a handful of peanuts, which he gratefully munches up.

After about 15 minutes, she taps him on his shoulder again and she hands him another handful of peanuts.

She repeats this gesture about five more times.

When she is about to hand him another batch again he asks the little old lady, 'Why don't you eat the peanuts yourself?'.

'We can't chew them because we've no teeth', she replied.

The puzzled driver asks, 'Why do you buy them then?'

The old lady replied, 'We just love the chocolate around them.'

Both of these drawings are meant to be 'animated .gifs'. That means they should move. The little old man on the computer to the right is also an 'animated .gif' and I know he moves when you view this page in Firefox. The man doesn't seem to move when you look at this page using Internet Explorer. These are just some of the vagaries of the internet and using different web browsers.

Internet Experts tell us that Firefox is a much safer internet browser to use than Internet Explorer, though they do concede Internet Explorer is getting better each time they release an update. Internet Explorer seems to add features that Firefox users have been enjoying for quite some time each time there is a product update!

(Edit: I wrote this bit about 1 hour later) I have redone both animated.gifs and uploaded them to a separate internet site. I then set 'links' so my blog page links to the pictures from the other website. On my computer both pictures now should 'move' whether you are using Firefox or Internet Explorer (IE)! So if you click on the animated gif for a larger view, you are taken to the site where I have uploaded the original picture.

I still can't get the old man at the computer to move in IE though!
