Random script driving me NUTS!

what is the random behaviour?

is it just the layou, (ie the joke is so far down the page and sqashed up), or is there something else that I'm not seeing?s
 
the problem is the layout, the tables are not properly nestedinside of each other,

I blame either the editor you are using, on that you have coppied a page source ino the editor and not really edited it...

andway I took this. original source...

<BR><Width=100%> Chet the Parrot<br><font size=4> Once there was this guy who forgot to get his wife a Christmas present until Christmas Eve. In desperation, he tried every store in town, but they were all closed. He finally came upon a pet store that was open. He went inside and said "I need a Christmas present for my wife, now!" The clerk said "No problem and led him to a parrot.”What's so special about a parrot?" he asked, and the clerk just put his finger to his lips. He lit a match and put it under the bird's right foot. It started singing "Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!” He put the match under the bird's left foot, and he started singing "Deck the halls with boughs of holly, fa la la la laaaa la la la la!" The man was very impressed and bought the bird on the spot. He named him Chet. He took it home. The next morning, his wife unwrapped him, and the guy put it through its paces. Then, the wife got curious and asked "What happens if we put the match between his legs?" So they tried it. They lit the match, put it between his legs, and waited. The bird looked puzzled for a moment, and then started singing "Chet's nuts roasting on an open fire,"
