Bai Yun’s newest offspring, affectionately known as #6, is started to crawl about in anticipation of becoming the latest media celebrity west of the Rockies.
#6 is getting ready to make his move!
Huzzah!….ooops.
It’s Monday! Time to Be the Bear!

Sorry to be so lax in creating new cartoons! I was attending top secret high level meetings among the panda-ratti in Washington DC last week and so my campaign for Panda in Chief is seriously behind schedule. Never fear! I’ve been writing, if not drawing story lines for the new cartoons which I will get on immediately (well, later today, anyway)
To whet your appetite for the upcoming Panda-dential campaign, here are the first of the panda debates from the panda-primary to see what panda would represent us in the general election.
Is it really all black and white?
Till next time!
Be the Bear!

We are away from the panda den right at the moment, but the panda kindergarten…um…”borrowed” someone’s laptop so that they could post this tribute to Peanuts, the comic strip of Bob’s cubhood.
Will Mehitabel ever free herself of pandas? Stay tuned!
And by the way, the Kerfuffles Marshmallow project is in their final 12 hours! Check ’em out at Kickstarter while there is still time to get in on the fluffy goodness!

Sigh…
It’s the first week of October, and you know what that means.
Yes, this is the week the Mac Arthur Fellowships start getting awarded. And, as far as I know, there is still no category for “Panda Satire.”
Go Figure.
When will panda satire have it’s day?
Sigh…

Well, enough with the sad panda faces. One of the things that I love about pandas (besides being one myself) is that pandas never give up, no matter how hard things get. A late (as in gone from this earth) gardener friend had a theory about plants. She said that they entice you with their beauty or their fragrance, so that you would get down in the dirt and do stuff for them like water or weed around them. Maybe the plant was one that provided food, but mostly they had no purpose but to be beautiful, and they made that work for them so that you, the gardener, would support their existence.
Pandas are a little like that. They are the very definition of high maintenance girl friends. (Take Babette de Panda for instance…) It is really, really expensive to have a panda around, but it’s worth it! Well, I would say that, wouldn’t I? The recent tragic loss at the National Zoo in Washington DC underscores just how delicate they are as newborns. But those which survive bring enjoyment and grace in ways which can’t be measured.
OK. Now let’s get funny!
Bob T. Panda is running for president! Huzzah! Let’s see what the Cake Party has to offer to the American voter!
Vote for Bob!
And did I mention that we have now had over 40,000 visits to the pandas here at The Panda Chronicles? Stay tuned during this election season for more from the party of pandas! There will be cake! Huzzah!

OK, I’ll stop now…..
We will go back to our regular program of panda satire very soon. Just had to get this one out first.

If you are not aware already, the nation’s (well this nation anyway) newest panda ceased to be after only 6 days on the planet. We send inner pandy thoughts to Mei Xiang, Tian Tian and all the staff at the National Zoo in Washington DC. They should know that the nation’s panda faithful mourn with them.
We know that these things happen…nature knows what it is doing, but it doesn’t make us any less sad. We will go back to being funny tomorrow.
Till then,
Be the bear.
Bob T. Panda and the entire menage at the Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire.
Well it has been quite the trill, and it’s not…quite…over.
There are about 40 hours to go until my project closes on Kickstarter, so if you haven’t signed up to get a book or a poster or Bob T. Panda for President bumper stickers, there is still time. If you already are a supporter, now you get to sit back or jump around the room yelling “HUZZAH!!!!!! BRING ON THE CUPPYCAKES.!!!” Your work is done, at least for now. Later you will have to tell me where to send all of your goodies, but that isn’t for a few days. Oh yeah, and pay your credit card bill that Amazon will so sweetly send to you, but again, that is later.
Right now, Babette has a few words to say to you and I’m sure she wants to thank you for supporting my project, don’t you, Babette? Babette?
Babette and Bee, the Bear have a “discussion”
I am working on setting up the book even as we speak, but I want to thank the faithful followers of The Panda Chronicles once again. I really could not have done it without you, and I just want you to know that the panda kindergarten PROMISES there will be NO monkey business when they pack and ship your books to you. Really. They pinky swore and everything!
Well, now maybe we can quit spending all out time jumping up and down and watching the numbers change, and get some more new cartoons done, eh?
Bob T. Panda
Oh, yeah….Did we mention that we have reached 39,000 visits? Huzzah! I’m popular! finally! Just goes to show you that it’s never too late to have a happy childhood.
