It’s a Windy Wu’sday, as Mr Wu prepares to greet his Panda Fans! Huzzah!

Up here in the panda-less Pacific Northwest, one thing we are never short of are wind and rain.  OK, that was two things, but they do kind of go together! Although, right now, we are having wind and SUN!  But I bet you wish I would quit blathering about the weather, and get the latest cartoon from Mr Wu up on this site.

OK, OK, here it is!

Don't you love "rear shots" of baby pandas?

The Easter Panda!

What's Black and White and carries cuppycakes in a basket?

It’s Fabulous Furry Friday, once again!

Here we are, on a Friday morning, and we’d like to discuss the role of pandas in art history. I don’t know if anyone noticed in the most recent Wu on Wednesday cartoon, that Bai Yun’s pose in the first panel, was taken directly from a Caravaggio painting at The National Gallery in London, Supper at Emmaus. I wouldn’t want anyone to think that I had wasted seven years in art school.

Speaking of pandas in art, a painting that was recently discovered in the basement of a London Gallery, which wished to be unnamed, proves beyond the shadow of a doubt, that James Abbott McNeil Whistler had a thing for pandas, in this first version of a painting of his mother. Rumor has it that he had asked his mother for funds to travel to Italy, as he had recently been bankrupted after the Ruskin trial.  She refused, and he painted this portrait of her, as a panda.  later he relented and painting a portrait that was more of a likeness, but many thought that the original painting was more flattering.

Mr Wu is very, very, VERY, sorry.

Mr. Wu’s pirate adventure has come to an end, but don’t be sad.  The panda kindergarten is already plotting his next adventure, if only they can evade the long paw of the law (aka Bai Yun) who is not, to say the least, very happy with them.

"You are right and Wu is wrong...I'll never do it again, mommy."

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

But you just can’t keep a good small bear down for long, right?

Beware, Beware! It’s Panda Scout Cookie Time!

I don’t know about you, but the thing I like best about late February and early March is that it’s Girl Scout Cookie time.  Huzzah!.  The bad thing is that I seem to have developed a sensitivity to chocolate, and so cannot consume vast quantities of Thin Mint cookies, as I once could.  Hmm…maybe that’s a good thing. I only got two merit badges (as opposed to “merit badgers”) when I was a scout, and I think one had to do with baking.  Huzzah!  So, I thought that a little organized scouting might be good for the panda kindergarten.  Build “character” and all that.  What the hey.

On my honor, I will try...to eat as many cookies as I possibly can....

Pass the minty cookies, please.

PS: You will notice that I’ve put the countdown to launch week for The Panda Chronicles Book 2: Wheel…of….PANDAS up in the countdown spot!  Stay tuned, because there will be special treats (not cookies…I ate all of them already) for launch week!  huzzah!

Fuzzy Friday Encores: What Happens in the Panda Kindergarten, Stays in the Panda Kindergarten!

Well, I heard a Facebook rumor in the halls of panda fans, that is too delicious and ripe with possibilities that I cannot afford to disbelieve it.  This rumor, of course, is that an Asian concern has bought a failing Las Vegas Resort, and plans to remodel it and include a multi million dollar PANDA HABITAT.  Could this be true? I am all aquiver with the satirical possibilities that pandas in Vegas affords.

Of course, you remember this cartoon from sometime last year:

What happens in Vegas.....

What happens in Vegas…..

Ah… the possibilities!

It’s Friday! Time for an Encore Presentation!

We’re not sure how it happened, but already it is almost the end of the second month of the year!  Time flies when you are lounging around sipping bambootinis!

We are joking about the lounging around part!  Between monitoring the escapades of young Mr. Wu and getting book 2 of the Panda Chronicles ready for printing, we’ve hardly had a minute to ourselves!

Here is a classic episode of the Panda Chronicles to send you off for your weekend relaxation.  Share and enjoy!
