Cue the theme from The Twilight Zone

Once again, the Panda Chronicles predicts…

So, I try to work at least several weeks ahead on my ‘toons (doesn’t always happen, but right now I am in good shape for keeping the pandas running on schedule.) At least I am when I remember to post them. (Friday was a LIDDLE late, but who’s counting?) So let me say right now that I wrote today’s ‘toon several weeks ago and then I heard this story on NPR this morning.

I think this subject warrants further panda satire scrutiny, as does the “commemorative pin for bogus event” idea that our Embarrassment in Chief dreamed up to add money to his coffers. How many people think the sales of those pins will go to decrease the national deficit? Uh Huh. Me neither.

But meanwhile….you never know who is listening.

The Mommee Security Agency is always watching

The Pandas Debut in Calgary

Yes, Toronto’s loss is Calgary’s gain! The Pandas have packed their toys, driven the U-Haul across the prairies to the north and arrived in the fair city of Calgary! In honor of the debut of ERShun, Da Mao and the kids, Jia Pan Pan and Jia Yue Yue, I thought I’d rerun some of the ‘toons they starred in!

Let’s start at the beginning…

The beginning of Pinky’s campaign to get the Toronto Twins to endorse her presidential campaign, that is!

Bubba: but why should I be in trubble?

I’ll talk! I’ll talk!

Pinky and the Twinkies, eh?

“If Pinky is grounded, can I have her dessert?”

uh oh…

Um…I think Pinky has Daddee wrapped around her fuzzy little paw. Just saying.

Stay tuned next Friday for more stories of the Canadian panda twins (close personal friends of Unka Justin!)

Panda On!

and Now, Back to COOKIE BALANCING

I know you were all waiting for me to pontificate on all things cookie balancing, weren’t you? I thought you might have been! But what with one thing (Pinky and Bubba’s story) and another (my response to the slander from Foxxy News) well, my dissertation on cookie balancing just got pushed back again and again.

But now, with no further ado, The Panda Chronicles brings you…

The truth about the fascinating sport of cookie balancing! (Soon to be an Olympic event!)

Did I mention I broke the world record in cookie balancing?

Panda on!

You Knew This Was Coming, Didn’t You?

Well, heh heh! Surely you didn’t think Pinky could have an adventure without there being…um…repercussions, did you? And this time, Bubba can’t claim that it was all Pinky’s idea, since he and Ping Ping went off to Toronto to say goodbye to his friends Yip and Jip all on his own. The only true innocent here is Ping Ping.

You’re all grounded!

Well, she DID bring it back, and really, it should have been hers anyway.

Meanwhile in Pinky and Bubba’s home city, chaos proceeds apace, as the departures from the administration ramps up to unprecedented levels. Buckle your seatbelts, panda fans. The ride is going to be bumpier than we ever imagined possible! But hey! Great employment statistics …for lawyers!

The Pandas have arrived in Calgary (for real!) and they have begun to meet their public! stay tuned for more from Canada’s sweethearts, Yip and Jip!

Panda On!

Don’t let the Panda Fly the Helicopter

What could possibly go wrong?

Pinky, Bubba and Ping are heading for home, but surely you didn’t think this would go smoothly, did you? Did you????

Did you?

I wonder what this button over here does….AAAAAHHHHHHHH!

WE now return to our story…

Yes, we have returned to our story of Bubba and Ping’s visit to the Canadian twins, before they moved across the country from Toronto to Calgary. I’m sorry I interrupted it (several times) but stuff happened that I wanted to do ‘toons about sooner rather than later, and so there you have it.

But why can’t you just do extra days of ‘toons to keep up with all the stories?, you might say. And to you I would say….

Even a bear has to sleep sometimes!

So now, on with our story!

So THAT’S how Pinky got there so quickly!

Panda On!

Fabulous Furry Friday presents An Embarrassment of Pandas

I don’t know if it is true or not, but I have read that the collective noun for pandas is an embarrassment of pandas. If it’s not, it definitely should be. I mean have you ever watched them eat? While I work back here behind the scenes to formulate my response to the vile maligning of pandas on Foxxy “News,” I thought I would share some ‘toons of the archives of…um…Pandas Being Embarrassed!

I don’t know if this link will actually work or not, but here is Stephen Colbert taking about this segment on Foxxy “News”

First on the list, of course, since it is time for our annual salute to the Nixon Pandas, is this one:

I am only making some of this up.

Thanks guys! No, really.

The secret lives of the wild panda!

You better watch out….

Bubba Breaks out: Our Story Continues…

Oh me, oh my! Bubba has broken the chains of his good bear persona, (or is that bearsona?) and headed north to say goodbye to his true love, before she moves all the way across the country! Can you blame him? Surely Mommee Mei will take his broken heart into consideration, as our story continues.

But let’s see what happens next!

our story

Mommee pandas have laser vision. Don’t even think you can hide, Bubba.

But at least there will be cuppycakes!!!!

Stay tuned for more from our story on Wednesday. But also know, that we have been taking copious notes from the revelations of graft and corruption in the Drawers of the Cabinet of Doom. Not to name names, but in this un-protective environment, I think you know of whom we speak. It has given Pinky ideas. Too many ideas!

Be the Bear!

The long, long, LONG Goodbye

So, you remember that story I started telling you about Bubba and Ping going off to say goodbye to Yip and Jip, just before they went off and moved to Calgary, and then some other stuff happened, like the Panda Olympics and Chinese New Years, and I started telling you some other stories? Well, think of it as kind of a long goodbye from Bubba to his good friends to the north, Jip and Yip.

To remind you of where we left them…

Packing is such a chore! And a surprise visit from a friend can make it go so much faster!

So, now that you remember where we left everyone…

long goodbye

The Long Goodbye, or “Toronto Farewell”

Stay tuned for more of our story on Sunday! And don’t forget Fabulous Furry Friday, coming to you on…um…now what day was that again?

I Pity the April Fool

So says Bob (Mr) T Panda! It is April Fools Day and Easter Sunday, which makes me think of all sorts of tasteless jokes, which I will just leave to your imaginations.

One of my most memorable April Fool’s Days was during my student years when I was one of the artists at the Artists for the Environment Foundation at the Delaware Water Gap National Park. The director was…um…a bit humorless, so we decided to…shall we say, celebrate the season. We took down all the paintings from the wall and replaced them with freshly gessoed canvases, blocked the drive with our cars, there may have been some vaseline on the doorknob to his office. That memory escapes me. I’m sure we did some other things as well, but fortunately, I have forgotten them. I’m sure the statute of limitations has expired, so no harm, no foul!

Bring on the Chocolate Bunnies and Marhsymallow Peeps!

April Fools Day has always been my favorite holiday
