You're okay, it's only the first time. As the old saying goes:

If one man calls you an ass, laugh.
If two men call you an ass, ponder.
If three men call you an ass, buy a saddle.

Now who is jumping to conclusions that 'saucisson sec' is negative?

Reminds me of an old german joke, let me see if I can translate it, so it is still funny. :-)

Been on the turf yesterday, I had to tie my shoe laces when suddenly someone put a saddle on(to?) my back.
And what did you do?
Well, came in second, y'know?!

Jokes tend to be culture bound and untranslatable.

Here's my Granny from Dundee's joke; "Your Mother is English."

I dunno, who? I didn't see anyone state it was a negative connotation?

@Klaus - good one :D

So my joke is not funny because it does not make sense in english?

@Klaus -- it's funny. :)

You know what else is funny? Germans call gloves "hand shoes." I think that is both appropriate and extremely funny.

This is a fun topic. I learned a lot.
Here is a slightly revised version of the first stack posted.
It allows you to set (toggle between true and false) the palindromeFrames property so that is plays forward and backward until stopped.
Thanks for all the contributions (including the jokes and images),

I'm glad you experimented with it, I almost put the palindrome frames into the second one, but that one was targeted to show control completeness, so I mostly targeted the individual frames.
