Lucky Seven! a feature length cartoon, for your viewing pleasure.

As you know, I am particularly fond of “making it up as I go” and the “planning” for 31 days of pandas is no exceptions.  So the panda and cake theme will continue tomorrow (while I narrow down the choices for a non-contoversial “F” word).  I had already decided that at least one day a week I would post a full (NEW!) cartoon, starring the full Panda Chronicles cast, including Mehitabel, of course!

The idea for this cartoon is rooted in reality, as while on a recent trip, I was watching TV while following the news of Hurricane Sandy and the last days of the presidential election.  A 5 second clip of panda toddlers at one of the panda ranches flashed on the screen, and I spent the next…um..well a while… waiting for the pandas to return…

Sigh….they never did.

It is a very good thing I don't have regular access to television!

Hmmmm….now what is my favorite cartoon from the past year or so?   Could it be:

Bears are on the ball!

Bears are on the ball!

or maybe it is this one….

new years eve party, panda kindergarten

The panda kindergarten at their best…or is that their worst?

 

Or perhaps it is THIS one…

Any who,  stay tuned for 31 new pandas in 31 days…can she do it? Will the rapidographs clog up? Run out of ink?  Where will all those pandas sleep? And what if we run out of cuppycakes?

Hope to see any of you in the Whidbey Island vicinity at the Rob Schouten Gallery tomorrow or Moonraker Books on December 9th!  Celebrate the release of The Panda Chronicles Book 1: Your Brain on Pandas!!!!

I think there needs to be some sort of “panda a day” thing for December, don’t you?

You are probably not aware of it, but did you know that December is the month of the Panda?  Right now you are thinking, she’s making this up…I just KNOW it!  And, um…you might be right.  But if it isn’t really the month of the panda, don’t you think it should be?

So here is my December challenge to myself:  To post a drawing of at least one panda per day during the entire month of December.  It has to be a NEW drawing or cartoon…no cheating by posting a re-run.  It can be a single panda, or it can be a “cartoon in progress.”  I haven’t yet decided if it should be one big drawing like the 30 days of pandas drawing last year….well, I have until tomorrow to figure it out.

What could be more fun than a car full of pandas?

Meanwhile, my work table is overflowing with books to be sent to all my Kickstarter supporters, and my plan is to have them all mailed or delivered before the end of next week.  Huzzah!  Then I can get back to painting and doing the 31 panda drawings that I just committed myself to.  (The pandas made me do it!)

Time to climb aboard the panda car!

…Or Twinkies to be more precise.  I couldn’t let a news story like the one about the impending bankruptcy of Hostess go un-satirized, now could I?

Bob, Bob, Bob…when will you ever learn?

Do you think I should get the panda kindergarten to help with packing books?  Nah…I didn’t think so either.  If you are in the neighborhood of Whidbey Island WA, there will be two opportunities to meet Bob T. Panda and get your copy of The Panda Chronicles Book 1: Your Brain on Pandas.  Saturday December 1st from 1-4 at the Rob Schouten Gallery in Greenbank, and Sunday December 9th at Moonraker Books in Langley.

It must be some basic failing of mine that I get somewhat…um…obsessed by the stats on my blog…I know I’m not the only one.

According to WordPress, I now have 183 subscribers. Wouldn’t it be cool if there were 200 of you by the end of the year?

And then there is my new book!

Babette and Bee, the Bear have a “discussion”

WE at The Institute for Contemporary panda Satire would be ever so happy if you were to forward this link to a few of your humor loving friends and invite them to follow this blog.  (Don’t send it to people with no sense of humor…I’m sure you know a few….they just won’t get it and then they will think you are insane and talk about you in the lunch room at work and once THAT sort of thing get’s started…it’s all downhill from there if you know what I mean. I mean, how do you think I ended up doing panda satire?)

I think you get my point….

You are the Bears!  Stay tuned for some NEW cartoons this week!   Huzzah!

Oh my, Bob is in it up to his furry little eyeballs!  Tune in tomorrow to see further debates between Bob and…that…that CAT!!!!!

But we do not want to leave you panda-less (not to mention pants-less) another day, so we bring you another selection from the best of pandas archive here at The Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire!  Those of you in the US may have noticed that Thanksgiving is a little early this year, and retailers are not wasting any time getting out announcements of “Black Friday” sales, or as we like to refer to it as, “Black and White Friday”….

Black friday shopping tactics

Ah, fall…or something…is in the air!

As the year comes to a close, I invite you to invite three or more friends to join us at the Panda Chronicles! Wouldn’t it be cool if we could reach 50,000 views and 200 followers by the end of the year?  Well, I think it would be cool, but maybe that’s just me.  We can do this, panda fans!
