There is no amount of procrastination that can’t wait until tomorrow…..

Recently TWO generous (and, may I say astute?) readers of The Panda Chronicles have bestowed the Versatile Blogger Award on me, and I have been MOST negligent in fulfilling all the requirements of the office.  I really have no excuse, other than that I have been busy drawing new panda cartoons, and the panda kindergarten hid my laptop.  I think they have been watching panda videos on YouTube and then used the power cord to tie Bob up in the basement.

According to the rules of the Versatile Blogger Award, I must:

  1.  Thank the award-giver and link back to them in your post.
  2.  Share 7 things about yourself.
  3.  Pass this award along to seven others.
  4.  Contact your chosen bloggers to let them know about the award.

Right now I have two different people to thank and do all the other stuff, so I am going to multitask and combine these two award.  What are you going to do? take it back?  First I need to thank hungry4momos at http://stowawaytrain.com/2011/12/28/the-versatile-blogger-award-merry-christmas-to-me/ because, well, she nominated me first.  And then, before I even finished all this WORK I now had to do, Then The Rubbe at http://therubbe.wordpress.com/2012/01/11/were-famous/ went and gave it to me AGAIN.

Ok, so…thanks.  Don’t do it again. (Just kidding…It’s kind of like being prom queen, except I don’t have to wear a dress.)  ( Now could someone give me “The Humorous Blogger Award?”)

My favorite part is coming up with 7 things that people might not know about me, so here goes:

1.  I like to watch movies where lots of things blow up, usually after a very destructive car chase.

2.  Mehitabel is a real, actual cat.  She REALLY doesn’t like pandas.

3.  The panda kindergarten is the expression of my deepest, inner self.

4.  I have actually seen “the Nixon Pandas”  (look it up).

5.  In addition to cuppycakes, I am particularly fond of those little pink and white frosted animal crackers.

6. I do “voice overs” when watching panda videos, where I do dramatic presentations of what I think the pandas are saying.

7.  I am not really a panda.

In the interest of further procrastination, I will nominate my versatile bloggees um…later.  OK?

Well, you read this far, you should get a cartoon, so here it is!

Well, it is an election year!

Be the Bear!

Day 21…I can BEARly stand the tension!

30 pandas day 21

This has been so much fun.  If I didn’t have a log of each days drawing to look at, I wouldn’t be able to keep all those naughty little pandas straight.  I can tell you on good authority that there is a cake still to arrive, although the panda kindergarten DID eat all the cuppycakes and spilled bamboo soda into the keyboard of Mehitabel’s computer.  Cat’s have NO sense of humor!

Pandas hit the top 100!!!!!!!!

Well, I don’t know about you, but there is a certain excitement that comes with higher recognition.  While pandas are the rock stars of any zoo (sorry tigers…you’re just big stripe-y cats, and you know where cats stand in relation to pandas) we are shy and retiring and not entirely sure of our acceptance in society.  People have such an attitude about bears!

We at the Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire would like to thank all our faithful readers, even the ones who found us accidentally when they were looking for hair replacement therapies, not BEAR replacement therapies.

We hope to find where we stashed our story about PandAir so that we can bring it to you soon!

till then,

Be the Bear!!!!!!

A tribute to Peanuts, or, Mehitabel looks for work!

I was recently reading a collection of Peanuts cartoons from 1955- 1956.  On reading the endnotes, I discovered that yesterday, February 12, is the 11th anniversary of Charles Schulz’s death in 2000.  Re-reading those old comics, I was reminded of the debt that most contemporary cartoonists owe to Mr. Schulz.  Among the many personal obligations that I owe, is Lucy’s penchant for emphatic and confident mis-information, which has bestowed much on Bob T. Panda.  I’m sure there is much more, but I’d like to think that I might have at least one original thought in my head. I am eternally grateful.  And Mr. Schulz, if you’re watching from somewhere in the universe, I hope you are pleased with the generations of cartoonists you have inspired.  And one more thing, Be the Bear!

Will Mehitabel find a new job?  Will the panda kindergarten behave? Will there be cake?  For the answer to these questions and more, tune in again next week!

Be the bear!
