Enjoy these Rabble-Rousing Pandas…

…while I rack my brain for recollections of words that start with the letter “R”

While ragamuffin rabble rousing renegades run rampant raising hell around the panda kindergarten classroom, I request that you recall your favorite reads of childhood. Do you remember rambling tales of ransomed rascals? Stories of rebels rebounding through rebirth and revelation? Recall recalcitrant renegades rebuffing requests to rebuild? Rah Rah!

The letter “R” rejoices for the panda kindergarten!

The panda kindergaten knows where you live.

to repeat…

Evilness is one thing, but there must be snacks! An episode of “The Wizard of Wu”

Look out Mehitabel! here comes the panda kindergarten!

But sometimes, there is redemption….

Today, you are a bear.

Thanks again to the A to Z blog challenge for hosting all of us and bringing new readers to our shores, even if it is mostly each other. Huzzah!

Be the Bear, Right?

Happy Easter from the Panda Chronicles!

Today is an off day from the A to Z, but I always (okay, most of the time) post a cartoon (a new one, no less) on Sunday and Wednesday, and today is no exception.

I did leave a wedding party early JUST so I could get home to post this. Oh wait, “M” day (for martyr) was last week. Anyway, I did want to post my salute to Easter today, a holiday celebrating chocolate, and some other stuff as well, which, were I not a complete heathen, I would know about.

A tiskitt a taskitt , a great big wheelie basket!

I’ll be back tomorrow with more alphabetical atrocities.

Be the Bear,

And now for the Sunday Special!

Special what? Oh, I don’t know…I was looking for a word to go with “Sunday”, and “special” popped into mind. Just ignore me. It’s OK.

Well, meanwhile on the Pandamorphosis front, preparations are proceeding apace to launch Pandamorphosis into the world. Thanks to all of those who have offered their support, not only with my Kickstarter project, but also with the upcoming book launch, now scheduled for April 16th (yes, THIS April 16th) just in time for International Panda Day. And no I am not making this up!

Meanwhile Friend to Pandas, Henry Nicholls posed the question, “which would the panda kindergarten prefer: Regular Pepsi or new Pepsi Max? ”

Whichever one has more sugar in it would be my guess. Afterall, scientists have now determined that pandas have a “sweet tooth.” Hello? cuppycakes? Just sayin’.

enquiring minds want to know….

And a quick note, I’ll be participating in the A to Z challenge, where I will be posting daily for the month of April. We are to use a letter theme for each day (A to Z, right?) Ah, if only every day could be the letter “P” but I’m sure somehow I’ll manage to make everything panda related.

Till Tuesday, then,
Be the Bear!

The plot thickens….

It looks like the twinkies have arrived at the National Zoo.

Cue the music for the last scene shootout in any spaghetti-O western you might care to name. The avengers have ridden in to town and they ain’t gonna leave till they get retribution.

Or, at least a cuppycake.

Howdy, Mr Kitty, kindly tell us where a tired old cowpoke can get a boo beer and a cuppycake.

Will the girls join forces to take over the Pandy Kindy? Will Bert and Ernie remember to call their mom and let them know they arrived safely? Will the Pandy Kindy ever be the same?

Tune in next week as our story continues.

Uh Oh, Do I detect a cover-up?

25 Replies

Well, you have to admit, Washington DC and its denizens have a long and sordid history of cover-ups. Oh, did I say “den”? Hmmm….wonder where there next cover-up will come from…bwahahaha!

Oh, Pinky…what have you done?

What’s a mother to do? I hope it doesn’t come to this:

But she’s just a baby!

Road from Cublanta…Go, Twinkies, Go!

8 Replies

What could be more exciting than a road trip, especially when you have an adorable yellow car and a good kerfuffle in store for you at the end of the road?

And, yes, Inspector Panda does have his very own Twitter account. You can find him at @NoirPandas on Twitter. He would really like it if you followed him. Maybe you could help him with this case.

Will the twins get a merit badge for their road trip? Will Lun Lun fess up to where the girls are? Will Inspector Panda get a clue, or at least more twitter followers. Stay tuned!

I want to give a quick shout out of thanks to all who have bought The Panda Chronicles Book 4: The Book of Wu since it’s release just a couple of weeks ago. Huzzah! not to mention, shazaam! I’m also happy to see that there must be some newcomers to the world of The Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire, because you’ve bought the earlier books too. You are the bears!

And speaking of The Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire, we now have our own Facebook page. Head on over if you are a facebookian, and give it a like. Or a cuppycake. But don’t get frosting in your keyboard. It is a bear (ha ha, get it?) to get out.

Till next time,
Be the Bear!

The Case of the Petulant Princess continues…

There was way too much fun going on here last week with our round robin film noir (and blanc) story. If you missed it, be sure to check out the previous post for the whole story. It was tons of fun.

But now, we must get back to the cartoon chronicle. While it had similar characters, the round robin did go off on a bit of a tangent.

Our story so far: Someone has closed highways around Zoo Atlanta, and diverted all traffic to The National Zoo in Washington D.C., some four states away to the north. What mastermind computer hacker was able to complete this dastardly feat of pure evilness? Lun Lun hires Inspector Panda to get to the bottom of this mystery, but is he up to the task? And who will pay for the cookies?

…of course Boo-mints are pretty good too.

If this cartoon was in color, you would recognize the yellow car, favorite of Po, Xi Lan and the Twinkies. Tune in on Wednesday as the story continues.

Roadblocks make for quiet zoos….

…and what with the traffic diversion from Zoo Atlanta to The National Zoo in Washington DC, it was very quiet. You must admit that it was a very sophisticated bit of hacking for a six month old panda!

Princess Pinky has declined to comment on the “incident.” “i don’ kno nuffing bout it,” said Princess P. through her press office, “but did you see i is on da cobber of anudder magazine? pinky is a star!”

This is bad news for Panda Scout Cookie sales! (But you can get Girl Scout cookies through March 16th!)

Time to call in …Inspector panda!

Huzzah! I’m sure Inspector Panda will be able to sort it all out. Um…pretty sure….

Squee.

I’ve been trying to figure out a way to use the “storyline” that came out of the realms of “Political Intrigue: New Jersey edition”…you know what I’m talking about. And who would be a better mastermind, than our nation’s first panda princess…but don’t tell! There’s sure to be a cover-up.

George Washington Bridge lane closure satire.

Princess Pinky Bao Bao…what have you done now?

And while we’re talking politics, if you haven’t heard, a panda is running for mayor of Washington DC, you can read about his campaign on Twitter! Is that cool or what? He has our support, for sure! Check him out on twitter at @PandaforMayorDC Or, is it little Princess Bao Bao who has her eye on the prize? (Rumor has it, she’s getting ready to throw her tiara into the ring!)

Thanks again to all my Kickstarter supporters. My project was wildly successful, news will be breaking soon, so stay tuned. (Better than wind breaking, I guess.)

The Panda Olympics are on a tape delay…

….so here is Princess Pinky with a new episode! (Apologies to Mr. Wu, for taking over Mr. Wu Wednesday, but he was um…busy.)

Never say “No” to a Pinky!

Be the bear!

Remember, there are 9 more days to visit and pledge on Pandamorphosis on Kickstarter, and the same to have any Panda Chronicles Book purchases benefit Pandas International during February. Huzzah!!!!
