Bob the Panda was born somewhere in China in August or September sometime ago. He enjoys bamboo, sleeping, and bamboo. He is the creator of the Bob and Bob project, in which Bob and the Band-a-Pandas recreate all of Bob Dylan’s songs, with a rather “panda-ish” slant. Their big hit, “Blowin in the Bamboo” premiered on the Mehitabel Tonite! show, on the Panda Channel.
Bob is the great great great nephew, on his mother’s first cousin’s side, of Su-Lin, the first panda to come to America. A graphic novel, “America’s First Panda: the Untold Story” is being written even as we speak.
Bob’s favorite books:
The Lady and the Panda by Vicki Constantine Croke
The Way of the Panda by Henry Nicholls
Pandamorphosis by Anne Belov

what an utterly fantastic website, I’m so glad I came across it.
Thank you, thank you. I don’t know why pandas speak to me this way, but they do. Thanks again for reading ( and subscribing!) Be the Bear!
i’ve subscribed. this is too good
Thanks for being a panda fan! Be the Bear!
Bob, have you read ‘The Panda’s Thumb’ ? Unfortunately there are no cuppycakes involved, but it is still interesting reading!
No, I haven’t read it, but I will definitely put it on my reading list. We pandas have to keep informed, don’t ‘cha know? (Are you sure there is nothing about cuppycakes?)
I want to start by saying . . . if you’d rather not participate, I totally understand. I have declined in the past myself. It is kind of a pain in the arse. That said.
I’m awarding you the Versatile Blogger Award because I like your blog and think others will too. As with everything in life, there are strings attached. 1) You are to give the award to 15 other bloggers you feel are deserving and notify them of the award. 2) Make a post thanking the person that gave you the award (moi’) and listing your 15 choices. Provide links to these 16 blogs in your post. 3) Lastly, in your post, list seven things the bloggy world doesn’t know about you.
Here is the info I was given for the graphic of the award to be used in your post.
Personally, I had trouble with it, so feel free to contact me if you need help.
The bottom line . . . whether you participate or not . . . I think you have a rockin’ blog.
Wow Miss DR! I am honored. I’m doing the happy dance even as we speak. I will work on my list of 15 other bloggers. (Mehitabel the cat’s note: “There are other bloggers?”) How do I add the graphic? despite the fact I have two blogs (oooo! can I nominate my other blog?) I am a complete technological moron. as I like to say, my knowledge is shallow, yet narrow. Thanks for reading me and finding me worthy!
Hi!
If you agree I can put a link of your site on mine.
Thanks,
Jérôme ( http://www.pandas.fr )
Thanks Jerome! I’m very excited about pandas coming to France (as I’m sure you are too.) Much opportunity for panda satire exists with the French pandas. Thanks for thinking of me!
Thanks Bob for your reply. I added a link on my page : http://pandas.fr/index.php/liens.html
I will be happy if you add a link too. I’m very busy with this future arrival of pandas in France, and very excited !
will do! Thanks!
It is done! Do you have direct involvement with the French Panda project? How very exciting if you do! best of luck.
Thanks ! I’ve not direct involvement but I have close contact with the zoo
Good to know. I look forward to hearing updates on the pandas of France!
Yo dawg. I’ve nominated you for an award! Your comics make meh laugh. You must’ve gotten this already, but I can’t help myself.
Read about it….here! http://therubbe.wordpress.com/2012/01/11/were-famous/
We love to make people laugh! Yes, this is actually the third time I have been awarded the “Versatile Blogger” award. But thanks…. No… Really. Now the one I would really like to get is the “Humorous Blogger” award. Anyone? Hello?
this is awesome. made my day. i was a panda for halloween last year. it was also awesome. haha. glad i stumbled onto your blog.
Glad you like us! This is definitely the place for fun with pandas! Thanks for playing along. (And if you were a panda for halloween, what do you think pandas dress up as?)
zebras???
what ABOUT zebras?
nothing. especially compared to pandas…hehe.
Thank you sir, you are too kind! May fortune fall heavily square on your head!
Much obliged. The Daily Misfortune greatly appeals to my sense of irony and the absurd! Be the Bear!
Hi, i’ve just given you the versatile Blogger Award. Just follow the link to my blog for the info about it. http://thoughtofvg.wordpress.com/2012/04/11/the-versatile-blogger-award/. Congratulations
Thank you for this award. As I may have mentioned in my email, I have been previously honored 3 (or is it 4) times with this award. (The one I covet is the Humorous Blogger Award…anyone want to give it to me?) So, for those reasons, I’m afraid I cannot accept this award at this time. I am honored that I am one of the blogs you think worthy of notice.
