31 Days of Pandas: Day 5: It’s about Time!

It’s about time we introduced this year’s 31 Days of Pandas!

This is insane! Why do we do this???

Well, people (not me!) run marathons and IMHO that is insane. People collect salt shakers. They eat strange green drinks made of lawn clippings. People do all sorts of quirky things. But why do I do this? Good question!

In the darkest days of the year, (at least for those of us in the northern hemisphere~ *waves to our friends in Australia*) we need something to lift our spirits.
In one of the darker periods of our nation’s political history, I would be going insane without extra pandas;

I hope that you will be so appreciative of this extraordinary effort that you either subscribe to this blog (so you get pandas in your email, no fuss, no muss, no where did Fezbook put that)
OR
You buy all my books, or buy them as holiday presents for your friends and family;
OR
You want to support one of my upcoming projects that will be happening after the first part of the year;
OR
You will tell all your friends about panda satire and invite them to join in the panda fun because
You need extra panda-riffic-ness as much as I do! (and so do your friends!)

So with no further ado, let’s introduce this year’s 31 Days of Pandas!

31 Days of Pandas. You know you want this!

Huzzah!

31 Days of Pandas: Day 3

Leave a reply

Even though this is the third day of 31 Days of Pandas, this is the first new ‘toon of the month. To refresh your memory, the schedule for the 2018 31 Days of Pandas, New ‘toons will be posted at the regular times on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, and encore presentations will be posted Friday through Sunday. (In case you need to plan your panda satire schedule!)

The encore presentations will each be a year in review kind of thingie, where I will pick out my favorite ‘toons from each month of 2018, and maybe add a little commentary about them as I am inspired to, or think you might be interested in the thought process behind my favorite ‘toons. (Also to see if I can remember just what the heck I was thinking when I made that ‘toon.)

So! On with Day 3 of 31 Days of Pandas! Huzzah!

Wasn’t there something during the campaign of 2016 about NOT using private emails and devices?

Be the Bear and see ya tomorrow!

Day 2: 31 Days of Pandas

Leave a reply

We’re back for our second day of 31 Days of Pandas!

Huzzah!

Let’s get right back to our recap of Pinky in Wonderland!

And what magical place has Pinky found, as she opens the tiny door?

Those little pandas look vaguely familiar!

Wouldn’t it be better if dey was a very dark shade of pink????

Time to go off to find Mr. Bun!

I’ve always hated when movies do this…

Mittens: No Room! No Room! You look like you’re not from around here!

Our story continues…

What did we tell you?

Bubba wouldn’t be such a smarty pants if he wasn’t up in that tree (and couldn’t disappear at will)

Tune in tomorrow for the first NEW ‘toon of 31 Days of Pandas!

Huzzah!

Be the Bear!

It’s Time Once Again! 31 Days of Pandas Has Arrived

2 Replies

Yes, It’s been (another) hell of a year. So I asked myself, “Self…what could I do to improve the mood of the defenders of justice, the pursuers of happiness, and friends to furry creatures great and small…?”

I Know! Let’s have 31 Days of Pandas!!!!!!

We have a new format for this year’s 31 Days of Pandas. On Monday through Thursday, we will have a brand new ‘toon each day, and Friday through Sunday, we will revisit my favorite ‘toons of each month in 2018, with a teensy bit of commentary on the ‘toons.

But WAIT, you say! What about Pinky in Wonderland????

Well, I have been working on new episodes (Huzzah!) (Pinky: it’s about time! i am a icon, you know!). There have been so many current events that I have felt the need to chronicle, that Pinky in Wonderland was unavoidably delayed. Rather than make you search through all the older posts to catch up with the story, (would I do that?) I thought it would be a great use of the first two days of 31 Days of Pandas to recap the story till now.

Sit back, get some popcorn and Boo-Cola and enjoy episodes 1-9 of Pinky in Wonderland!

Curiouser and curiouser…

Pinky: mommee is making jokes again!

Was that Mr. Bun????

Sometimes being spontunerous can get you in over your head, Pinky!

Drink mee!

Well dis is a pickle an’ a half!

It would be better with a little salt and balsamic vinegar, but not bad!

We know just how you feel, Pinky. We feel the same.

What could be behind that door? Stay tuned, panda fans!

Tune in tomorrow for the next installment of 31 Days of Pandas and Pinky in Wonderland!

Be the Bear!

It’s Black and White Friday!

Join us as we attempt to push away from the table (no! Really, I couldn’t…oh, well, maybe a fifth piece of pie would go down nicely) and gather around the computer to enjoy a few vintage ‘toons as we gear up for 31 Days of Pandas, starting a week from Saturday.

The news just keeps getting newsier and newsier and I am thankful that my friends in north central CA home was spared, but so many were not. Perhaps the panda kindergarten could be enlisted to rake the forest floor. Sigh….

But enough about reality! Let’s have some pandas!

pass the beans!

More literature of the panda!

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

Princess Pinky says, she is thankful for cuppycakes and da panda kindygarten and her magical wand!

It’s beginning to look a lot like pandas….too soon! too soon!

Zank hebben…for leettle bears!

Maybe Bubba is having a Halloween SEASON! Did you ever think of THAT, Pinky?

Also, in the future panda file, I just found out 2019 is The Year of the Banky Pig! Huzzah! Be sure to tune in on Sunday for the final episode of “Bears will be Bears!”

Be the Bear!

Have a Fabulous Furry Friday! (burp!)

Will You Please Put That Phone Down?

Leave a reply

We’ve all been there. You’re having a perfectly nice dinner with friends, someone brings up an old movie, a song, someone asks who the director or co-star was, and before you know it, everyone has pulled out their phone and is Googling the answer.

Sigh…

Little did we know that not only does it annoy (some of) us, it pisses off your dog, too.

Cats, on the other hand, weren’t paying attention to you anyway.

Thanks to all who responded to my Shameless Self Promotion! I’ll be announcing a few more as the shopping season continues. Currently, there are still 2 lithographs of Yun Zi available! Just send me a message via the Contact Us page!

Yun Zi; 2 available, framed or unframed.

Panda on!

A special guest appearance…

Every once in a while, I get a special request from a regular reader (may I say fan?) of The Panda Chronicles, for a special ‘toon. In this case, the D.C. mom of adorable doxies about town, Bella and her little sister Moneypenny, wanted them to appear in a ‘toon. She graciously allowed me to share it here. I hope you enjoy it.

Even pandas need pets!

And look! No politics whatsoebber!

Panda (and puppy) on!

We survived the midterms and while we didn’t get everything on our wish list, we did get some of it, most importantly Democratic control of the House of Representatives. That’s not just chopped liver, I’m telling you!

Meanwhile, we are gearing up for 31 Days of Pandas and I think I have a plan! Meanwhile…

Let’s scamper down memory lane, with Pinky and her minions, who just turned FOUR years old last week!

AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!

Triple Trouble indeed!

What are Pinky and her minions getting up to?

Maybe you shouldn’t plug that many things into an extension cord, Pinky.

did someone turn out the lights?

And Zoonooz is on the job!

Cause and effects are very complicated concepts for baby pandas, don’t you think?

Zoonooz is on the job. Can you say “cover up”?

Pinky for what??????

Bob wouldn’t try anything sneaky, would he? Would he??????? Ah…such innocent times…

Panda on!

PS: For those of you who have been following the news in Pittsburgh, my friend was recently moved from ICU to a regular hospital room, so I am more optimistic, cautiously so. Thanks to all who have asked.

Some Pandas for the Day After

So, since I schedule posts to appear at about 5 or 6 in the morning EST (You’re welcome!) so that you can have a little shot of panda satire before you go off to work, we don’t really know how this whole election thing has worked out. Despite some last minute maneuvering by various GOP outposts (I’m looking at you, Calvert County MD!!!! Shutting down public transportation on election day? Shame on you!) early voting numbers are way up, in some cases exceeding even the total number of votes cast for the 2014 midterms.

I am optimistically, provisionally hopeful….Sort of.

But I will wait to hear some election news before I schedule Friday’s encore presentation ‘toons. We will either have happy pandas, or post apocalyptic pandas, or maybe we will have lalalalala-I-can’t-hear-you pandas. But one thing I am sure of.

There will be pandas! Here are some now!

Thank you to the international Panda Community! You are da bears!

Panda On!
Bob T Panda

Save the Date: A reminder that our annual Panda-Palooza, 31 Days of Pandas is just around the corner! We’ll be adding additional NEW ‘toons to our usual 2 new ‘toons a week, plus a Year in Review Roundup with my (and I hope yours) favorite ‘toons of 2018! Set your watch for December, because that’s when it all takes place! There has to be SOMETHING to look forward to, right? Stay tuned for more information about our posting schedule!

Just a reminder to everyone, that today is election day in the US. Everyone who hasn’t already voted by mail, or voted in early voting, should be heading out to the polls soon.

VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE!!!!!

Have I made myself clear? Let’s not have a repeat of this:

Remember the song “The Eve of Destruction”? That’s what today feels like.

We shall overcome
