Day 26: 31 Days of Pandas

It’s Boxing Day, which is the day that, by tradition, Pandas all sit in boxes! Interestingly enough, cats like to sit in boxes too, which is why pandas are also referred to as “bear cats.” Um…you might want to check some other sources, as science is not my forte. (neither is math, just so you know.)

Meanwhile, It’s time to share more pandas from the archives for 31 Days of Pandas!

Huzzah! Sometimes it’s also about cats!

The irony of Mehitabel criticizing Pooh Bear for his wardrobe, does not escape me.

I’m not sure Mehitabel has anything to talk about.

…except when it is about Pinky.

Can you believe those Meihems? blaming everything on Pinky?

Happy 100th day Birthday! More frosting!

And this is where we were at, at the end of 2015!!!!

Consider this my Werld Peez Pandifesto

Panda On!
Don’t let us down, Mr. Mueller!

Day 23: 31 Days of Pandas

2 Replies

Wowee! We are already up to day 23 of 31 Days of Pandas!

It’s really tempting to want to focus on the ‘toons of last year so that we can keep the pain and horror of the events of the last 12 months alive, but somehow, I need some kinder and gentler pandas today.

Well, until Monday when the cubbies sing their straight from the hip version of God Rest Ye Merry Gentle Bears for you all.

I hope you enjoyed our encore production of It’s a Wunderful Life, starring the Wu Self and Bee, the bear, my favorite holiday classic! Tomorrow we return to 101 Bebe Panda-Nations for another episode! Meanwhile, let’s spin the dial of the panda way-back machine and see what ‘toons pop up! Welcome to some new readers who found us by way of Twidder. We hope that they have a wonderful time rummaging through the archives and catching up with panda satire history!

Should Pandas pay their own way?

Wheel…of…PANDAS!!!!!

We should note that they really don’t let you do this anymore. I wonder why.

Inspired by my discovery of the San Diego Zoo website!

Keep being the bear! And tomorrow is Crispmoss Eve! Huzzah! let’s have cookies!!!

Panda On!

I know I am way too MEAN, to have two stories with scary bits and a whole lot of suspense going on at the same time. Well, all I can say to that is…

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Ahem….

But! As promised, today, I bring you all the final chapters of It’s a WUnderful Life, so then you’ll only have ONE story to be worried and apprehensive about. Well, one panda story and the debacle in DC, where the GOP has just decided to take most of your money, your healthcare, and anything that is happy and give it to very wealthy people. Unless you are a very wealthy person yourself and then will you take me for a ride on your private airplane? Ahem.

But enough about the fall of Democracy and the desecration of the Constitution… Here’s the next episodes of It’s a WUnderful Life!!!

Repeat after me, “It’s a story” ‘kay?

Everytime a bell rings, a panda gets a cuppycake.

Yay! The heartwarming schmoopy ending!

A bear and his mom…together forever?

And now you know why Wu is such a well behaved, responsible panda, helpful and loving to all his little cousins! Unlike another panda we could name…

Speaking of Pinky, book editing and formatting is well underway for the next exciting Panda Chronicles Book release! I hope to have everything done by the end of the year, and then the uploading and approval process starts, so hopefully, I will have it ready by the beginning of February. Stay tuned for more news on The Pinky Defense: Book 8 of the Panda Chronicles!

I will also have a special ‘toon for Christmas Day, so don’t forget to check back here. I will have a very special Christmas carol for you to share with your family and friends! Huzzah!

Panda on as if your life depended on it!

A quick update

Several people contacted me today because they know I live in Western Washington. I was no where near the terrible accident that happened on the Seattle-Portland Amtrak route. (I’m not ducking blame, just wanted you to know that I am safely at home.) It must have been a horrifyingly scary event. The pictures send major chills up my spine. I know many people who travel the stretch of I-5 daily, as well as people (myself included) who regularly take the train from Seattle to Portland. My thoughts are with the people who were so terribly injured and frightened by this accident. The pictures are chilling.

Meanwhile, Mr. Wu learns what life would be like if there were no more baby pandas…

What part of “you don’t exist” didn’t you get? Ha ha! I love that line!

You won’t like this, Mr Wu!

Those darn cats! I really hated this part of “It’s a Wonderful Life” too.

Oh man! What is going to happen next????

Panda on!

A happy (if late) Fabulous Furry Friday Day 15 of 31 Days of Pandas!

The weather was too beautiful to stay indoors yesterday, so I did not get today’s post set up to launch in the wee hours. A beautiful day in mid December is a precious thing and ought not to be wasted!

You should also know that I am hard at work on compiling Book 8 of The Panda Chronicles!!! Huzzah! Since my process of writing and drawing the ‘toons is a bit by the seat of my pants, I always need to take some time to rearrange the actual physical cartoons into the order which they really should be, as opposed to the order they popped out of my head. All of my writer friends will tell you it’s all in the editing and revising.

Next week, we will start with that favorite Holiday Classic, It’s a WUnderful Life, starring Mr. Wu and Bee, the Bear, as the Christmas angel who shows Wu the error of his ways. But now, let’s dip into the ‘toons of last year, in honor of Doug Jones’ win in Alabama! Maybe all is not lost after all!

Are all these paper clips mine?

Whats a protest without pandas?

Hey, save some cuppycakes for me!

And here’s a photo I took at our own Million Pandas March in beautiful Langley on Whidbey Island. (Note: I am about in the middle of the crowd.)

Women’s March, Langley edition!

Panda On!!!!

Day 4: 31 Days of Pandas

But not too many, because, you know, it will make us sad and scared.

Pay us enough money and we’ll say just about anything!

Is it just my imagination or does Mittens look even more crazed than before?

Okay, Okay! Now as an antidote, we move on the the adorable Wu Self!!!

Yo ho ho and a bottle of BooBeer!

“You are right and Wu is wrong…I’ll never do it again, mommy.”

Did we mention you could visit Mr. Wu at the 2018 Panda Convention?

And since it is the Season to Give the Gift of Pandas, may we respectfully suggest that nothing makes people happier than pandas, and what could be better than a seasonal Panda mug?

Have yourself a Pandy little Christmas…

Panda On, as best we can!

Day 2: 31 Days of Pandas

Today we start with the baby Wu stories! These are some of my favorites, as they were the first time I realized the joy of creating alternate characters for actual real pandas! Sooooo, in that sense, Pinky’s persona is all Mr. Wu’s fault!

Am I right?

This was the very first Mr. Wu ‘toon!

Mr. Wu made many cameo appearances before he started appearing in feature stories.

“Wu calls his dance, ‘Ode to a Weaf’ ” The real life Mr. Wu had great fun playing with leaves, which inspired this ‘toon.

Thank you all for coming! Buy my book here!

Tune in tomorrow for the next episode of 101 Bebe Panda-Nation!

Be the bear!

31 days of Pandas starts TODAY!

It’s the beginning of 31 Days of Pandas! Can’t you feel the excitement? I think there is a slight whiff of indictments in the air! Oh…maybe it’s the fresh scent of fir trees and cedars and freshly baked cookies!. My mistake! They are so easily confused!

No matter! Every day this month will bring you some ‘toons from the Panda Chronicle archives, along with your regular NEW ‘toons on Sundays and Wednesdays! I’ll be focusing on the stories of Mr. Wu, in honor of the upcoming Panda Convention in March of 2018!

But for today, in recognition of the recent apocalypse EO signed (but then rescinded) by You Know Who on shipping trophies of murdered elephants into the USA, I thought this trio of ‘toons was in order!

Be very careful…It’s a jungle out there.

What goes around, comes around.

You just can’t trust crocodiles.

Don’t be endangered, be dangerous

Panda on!

Yes, yes, it’s Fabulous Furry Friday, but what with the American Thanksgiving holiday, I was so busy in the kitchen that I never had time to prepare todays encore presentation post. Never fear, I am here now, and here are some toons from the way back machine to cheer your weekend.

I know I ran this one already, but it is appropriate to the day, don’t cha know?

pass the beans!

While we’re thinking of food…

‘Tis the Season!

And a Happy Thanksgiving Weekend to you all!

It’s Friday, and you know what that means! Time for our purported leader to drop another bombshell and then go golfing! Fortunately, while you are rending your garments and gnashing your teeth, we have some classic panda toons to share with you!

Since it is what I like to refer to as “The High Holy Week of the Birthday Season,” I’ll share some of my all time favorites!

and away we go!!!!

Since a week from today is the traditional “Black Friday” shopping extravaganza…

Ah, fall…or something…is in the air!

Boopie and the pandas…

a morality tale…

Remember to tag your luggage!

…in several parts…

…but Boopie and the pandas live happily ever after. Ben does not.

In the words of Mehitabel: This is so disturbing on so many levels!

Don’t want to venture out into the soulless malls? Stock up on The Panda Chronicles Books for all your gift giving needs! Pandas are the gift that keep on giving!

Panda On!
