You Knew Someone Was Going to Get Grounded, Didn’t You?

Was it YOU?

We have recently received reports of the arrest of one of the Jan 6 insurrectionists who was reported to have worn…I can’t believe I have to say this… a PANDA SUIT when he invaded the Capitol.

Do I have to remind you that pandas are peaceful and a force for good and would never, never, never support Mittens? Needless to say, ZooNooZ will be covering this shameful episode next week. Defamation suits are being considered.

BTW, I have a new thingie on my Substack Noozletter!

Did I mention there will be a new book SOON?

Another International Incident Narrowly Averted

Never underestimate the diplomatic value of hot cocoa (with liddle marshymallows) and cookies!

I’m guessing everyone involved (except for the First Lady) will be grounded.

A reminder that my pontificating can be found over on my new Substack NoozLetter. Feel free to subscribe as a free or paid subscriber. Both are welcome! Also, I am making progress on my new book! Hopefully by next week I’ll be ready to do a cover reveal and have a little more accurate estimate of when it will be available.

Till then…

What goes up…More spy balloon nonsense

Leave a reply

It was nice of whoever is continuing to float UFOs around the sky so that my ‘toon series would be relevant. Was this a spy balloon, or just a wayward panda cubby?

You be the judge!

You had ONE JOB, Beary Poppins!

Fortunately they weren’t the Pookies you were looking for.

Was “Selfie Bear” on her way to Washington DC? I guess we’ll find out, won’t we?

Hi hi hi hi!

Bob TI JUST FOUND OUT THERE IS A BEAR CAM Panda

The Woodland Park Zoo Bear Cam shall henceforth be known as the Pookie Cam (at least, that is how it is labeled in my bookmarks.)

More Pookies! You Cannot Resist!

It is futile to resist the pookiness of the Pookies. Don’t even try!

It is a sad fact, that when bears come into contact with people, the bear is often the loser. When I visited the Calgary Zoo a few years ago (in the “before times”) their resident grizzly bear was a many times offender. They had his rap sheet posted outside his enclosure. He was one of the lucky ones. Instead of being killed for his many incursions on cars and garbage cans, there was a place for him at the Calgary Zoo, where he has lived a long and peaceful life.

Pookie Two’s mom, from Montana, was not so lucky. She had become habituated to grazing in garbage cans, and while we could only hope that she might eat a certain congresswoman from Colorado, she won’t get the chance. But don’t tell Pookie Two. She thinks her mom moved to a farm upstate. Do you want to be the one to tell her?

I didn’t think so.

The UnBEARable Cuteness of Pookies

6 Replies

I know I tend to re-use names. For the first couple years of my descent in to Pandaholism, all my panda stuffies were named “Bob”. We will try to differentiate between the Seattle Pookies, and Bikkie’s friend from Alaska, Pookie.

I’m sure we’ll manage!

And while I really hate leaving the island to go into civilization, I am determined to shepherd the Pookies at The Woodland Park Zoo through their cubbyhood! I know I should not bring this up, but we could be looking at a temporarily (we hope it’s just temporary) panda-less existence here in the US. Memphis’s pandas leave near the end of this year, and the Pandalanta Pandas and the DC pandas contracts are running out. There is still no word on whether pandas will return to SanDiego. The pandemic put a definite crimp in the budgets of the zoos and the US is not getting along particularly well with China.

We are going to have to fall in love with some different sorts of bears.

The Pookies just might be able to be the bears…

Panda On!

I apologize for not getting a ‘toon done for today.

I probably won’t have one for tomorrow. I don’t know where my time is going but I’m going to have to take myself in paw in the new year. In the meantime, here is a phot of part of what I was doing today

I got to see the Pookies! Fern and Juniper, new residents of Seattle’s Woodland Park (panda-less) Zoo. They are less than a year old, Juniper is a coastal brown bear from Alaska, and Fern is a grizzly from Montana. Obviously, their names must both be Pookie. At their age they are larger than an adult panda. They are adorable together, and I am going to have to find a way to go to the zoo more often.

I’ll be back with ‘toons next week. Meanwhile, I’m posting some of the holiday Encore Presentations on my Substack Noozletter.

Fat Bear Week Scandals Abound!

Leave a reply

Once again, I must point out that we, the crack reporting team at ZooNooZ, had uncovered this story BEFORE the recent revelations of voter fraud broke out regarding that little trollop Holly stuffing the ballot box as if it were a garter belt at a backwoods bear stripper bar.

You can be sure ZooNooZ will be covering this malodorous malfeasance in a future broadcast. But for now, let’s deal with the CURRENT scandal!

How many scandals can one bear?
