It’s Sunday Funday! Let’s have Fun with PANDAS!!!!

The sky is gray, but it’s all black and white at the Panda Chronicles!

Yes, it’s Sunday, which is now our day for Encore Presentations of all of my (and I hope your) favorite ‘toons. I spent yesterday at the American Library Association Midwinter Conference in Seattle. It was fun and overwhelming and I came home with piles of new books to read, saw many of my writer/illustrator buddies from SCBWI (Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators) and was in the presence of more people than I usually see in a year.

If I find books in my now huge to-be-read pile that I love, I’ll be sure to pass these titles along as I know many of you love to read things that aren’t even about pandas!

But now, let’s have some of those pandas you love!

I just saw another news story on Twidder about this…

“I’ll have one of these, and one of these, and one of these, and one of…”

…and she ate the just right cuppycake all up!

Oh come on…hasn’t that ever happened to you? One minute there are two dozen cuppycakes just sitting there, and the next minute they’re gone?

let there be cake!

Inspired by a TRUE story!

I need to go have some cake!

Panda on!

In case you might be interested….

Sunday Funday!

…I have a new Kickstarter campaign running since this past Thursday. For those of you who don’t know about Kickstarter, here’s how it works:

and that’s what it’s all about!

Some of you may remember some earlier campaigns: (Not to mention what the panda kindergarten did to Mehitabel!)

Get ready…….

Think of the next couple weeks like NPR and their pledge drives!

There was my campaign to raise funds for a trip to see pandas in China…

Isn’t it time for a cuppycake?

Of course, Pinky was happy to help!

Pinky: what’s wrong wif dis cookie?

Did Bubba eat the cookie?

But this time, it’s ALL ABOUT PINKY!!!!! (Or, at least a pinky pin!)

Pinky pin! #ClapLouder Final size approximately 1.25″x1″

Panda on (over to my Kickstarter site!)

Update!: We’ve already reached funding minimums! Huzzah! I’ll be posting some stretch goals TOMORROW!!!!

Sunday With the Wu Self

2 Replies

While the completely Unfair and SAD!!! DC #PandaCamShutdown is happening, pressure is mounting on those other zoos with panda cams! Six and Sebben are feeling the strain to be cute non stop, and while Mr. Wu is in his prime years of panda stud-muffinhood, the strain is getting to him too!

Let’s look back on the early days of the Wu-self when he was not quite so pleased to share the spotlight with the other up and coming pandas!

where happy pandas eat bamboo, oh why, oh why, can’t…Wu?

Please refer any questions to Mr Wu’s legal team.

Uh oh. All is not well in Pandyland!

Is this a personality or what?

Of course, we remember that OTHER goobermint shut down. That time it WAS the Congress’s fault!

How much can a small panda stand?

Beware, the power of the paw!

Panda on!
Bob T Panda

Don’t forget to keep your eyes open for the launch of our Kickstarter campaign to produce the first in (we hope) a long line of Panda Chronicle Pins! Coming THIS THURSDAY! I will try to have the opening bell (metaphorically speaking) as close to Noon PST as I can manage! Stay ‘tooned!

Sunday, Sunday, SUNDAY!!!!!!

It’s Super Panda Sunday here at the Panda Chronicles!

Actually, right now it is Wednesday night, but another big windstorm is headed my way, and as the last one knocked my electricity out for almost 5 days, I thought I would get this scheduled before it goes dark here.

Since HWMNBN has decided to blow up the budget deal and shut the goobermint down (AGAIN!!!!!) I thought you would appreciate some of Bubba’s greatest hits to get you through the shutdown. We can only hope for the sake of people who aren’t getting a paycheck because of this, that by the time this posts, it will all be over. I am not optimistic.

I love: Bubba~ The Early Months

He’s small for now, but Bubba Bei Bei is shaping up to be a whole lot of panda!

Feed me, Mama!

Happy 100th day Birthday! More frosting!

What the well dressed panda cub is wearing this season!

…or as Bubba says, “dis. not. stan!”

And then there was the day he had to figure out what to wear for his debut…

Okay, okay…one more!

I didn’t THINK that Pinky knew the “share” word.

Panda on like it’s 1999!

31 Days of Pandas: Day 30~It’s almost over!

2 Replies

What a great 31 Days of Pandas this has been! I hope you’ve had fun and that at least for a few moments you forgot about the complete s*#*show was going on in our nation’s capitol. Oh…um..sorry. I didn’t mean to remind you.

Hey! Look over there! Pandas!

Sad Turtle, Too Much McConnell has much to answer for.

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

Love in the Time of Mittens (which, quite frankly, is a lot like the time of cholera)

And finally, we end up where we began this panda-fun month!

31 Days of Pandas. You know you want this!

We all kind of feel like this, Pinky.

Panda like it’s 1999!

31 Days of Pandas: Day 29/ Year in Review~November

2 Replies

Ah, November! The year 2018 is winding down to its final conclusion. Indictments are swirling about the Christmas tree like fat, fluffy snowflakes. The clink of Jacob Marley’s chains can be heard in the deserted halls of the White House.

But Hope flutters anew, if feebly, in the hearts all who love justice and fairness for the most vulnerable in the world. But make no mistake. There have been tragic losses mixed among the election victories. New energy, new ideas will inhabit the halls of Congress when the next Congress is seated in January. But children who have traveled across dangerous paths are either denied entry or placed in prisons, for the crime of being for poor countries.

So…what WERE we pandaing about in November?

Seriously, don’t forget to vote!

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

As traumatic as watching the Kavanaugh hearings was, writing this series did me a world of good. So did this Saturday Night Live broadcast.

Send in the bears!

Helloooooo bears!

I like bears.

Panda on!

31 Days of Pandas: Day 28/ Year in Review~October

Let’s see, shall we? Shall we perhaps remember another unindicted co-conspirator?

Can’t ghosts have opinions too?

Um…maybe he could be Individual 1’s Chief of Staff!

“And they called ME a crook!”

Stop the chaos and VOTE!!!

Make sure Pinky doesn’t try to steal Bubba and Ping’s candy!

Panda on!

31 Days of Pandas: Day It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Crispmoss

6 Replies

Yes it is Day 25 of 31 Days of Pandas, otherwise known as Crispmoss among the panda set. I would like to point out that it is 46 degrees inside my house, as the electric power has not yet returned. Because of my extreme dedication, I am at the library, preparing this and the next few days of 31 Days of Pandas posts so not a single post is late.

Am I wonderful, or what????

For those who said “Or what,” I am going to tell Pinky you said that and she will do something to you I’m sure. Maybe give you a medal, maybe poof you, I don’t know. Just for that, I am going to torture you with extending Pinky in Wonderland for one more day and instead, bring you this encore presentation of everyone’s favorite holiday classic…

Have yourself a pandy little Christmas….

It’s a Wonderful Life, starring non other than The Wu Self! Enjoy!

Thank goodness Bee the Bear still has her magical wand from the last adventure.

Wu is a good bear at heart….

Bee the bear tells it like it is

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!

Repeat after me, “It’s a story” ‘kay?

Everytime a bell rings, a panda gets a cuppycake.

Yay! The heartwarming schmoopy ending!

Pandaing through the snow…

31 Days of Pandas: Day 23/ September Year in Review

Oh my! it is Christmas Eve EVE! time to swill down some egg nog, finish that last minute shopping, and get ready for the final episodes of Pinky in Wonderland! Do we know what is going to happen? Well, SOME of us do!

But you’re just going to have to wait and see, won’t you?

And now, let’s continue with everyone’s favorite game show, Name that Personality Disorder!!!!

Someone forgot to take their meds today, I think.

Lock that cat up, for crying out loud!

You can dress him up, but you can’t take him out! Um…maybe you can’t even dress him up.

Yep, that old Mittens…he’s SUCH a charmer!

This was one of my favorite stories of the year. The lions paved the way for Frank and Mikey, the grizzly bears who…um…allegedly ate a Supreme Court Nominee.

Ooooooo-oooo-oooo-we have food tonight…

Here kitty kitty…nice kitty…

“We just want to talk!”

Did I just spill something on my new outfit?

Be a sneaky panda!

31 Days of Pandas: Day 22/ August Year in Review

4 Replies

Here we are, reliving the dog days of August. Not that we really have those in the north woods that the pandy kindy and I call home. August is the most perfect month of the year in western WA. The days are still long, warm, and sunny, the nights are cool, but not too cold. This is what the fuss is all about.

And speaking of fuss…

Oh, boys!!!

All’s well that ends well!

And now, for a most appropriate game show, what with all that is happening in the OTHER Washington!

Just how crazy do we think it’s going to get?

Next to Mittens, we all look pretty normal, don’t we?

Panda like it’s 1999!
