It's a stop-motion ad and Robert Downey, Jr. will voice him. You can see it on YouTube.com, but it should be on prime time soon. Mr. Peanut was created by schoolboy Antonio Gentile for a contest for the Planter's logo. (And I bet he did the first "monocle smile"!) tjoeb};>

It seems so much more like the norm. Granted, the Pink Panther spoke in two cartoons (Sink Pink and Pink Ice), but there were 122 others where he did not. _________________________ The way to get things done is NOT to mind who gets the credit for doing them. --Benjamin Jowett No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. --Eleanor Roosevelt The day we lose our will to fight is the day we lose our freedom.

Even hubby didn't notice. _________________________ May the tail of the elephant never have to swat the flies from your face.
