What’s a little red paint among sisters?
Time to go off to find Mr. Bun!
We’ll be taking another station break from Pinky In Wonderland, because we have some breaking stories, but have no fear! Pinky in Wonderland will return (as soon as …um…I finish reading the source material!)
Mommee pandas have laser vision. Don’t even think you can hide, Bubba.
Panda On!

Welcome to episode 12 of Pinky in Wonderland. I have been remiss in brushing up on my Lewis Carroll, but never fear, we will get through this story, even if it is in bits and pieces. I have so many books on my coffee table, crying out to be read! The latest version of the enemies list coming out of Pinky and Bubba’s home town is distracting to say the least.
But enough about reality! The world has truly gone crazy and while I have recovered from my recent flu, I think in bed, under the covers, with the pillow over my head is the best place to be.
Wouldn’t it be better if dey was a very dark shade of pink????
Panda On!

Oh my ears and whiskers! Who will Pinky encounter as she searches for Mr. Bun? Will there be cuppycakes? And just where is she anyway?
Those little pandas look vaguely familiar!
Be sure to tune in on FriBei as we return with more encore presentation ‘toons about Pinky and Bubba! Huzzah!
Update on Kindle books: One of my alert readers just let me know that amazon will honor previous purchases for the lower price Kindle book if you’ve already bought the print version via Amazon. I hope to have them all uploaded by the end of this month! Personally, I am a print book fan, but so many people who commute or travel enjoy having them to take with them as an ebook. Enjoy!
Panda On!

…Pinky in Wonderland! I bet you were wondering when I was going to get back to this, but what with Bebe Maurice’s birthday, Zhen Zhen’s big adventure and, oh…I don’t know, the collapse of civilization as we know it, I just got the tiniest bit off track! I’ve been out and about peddling my fine art wares in various places too.
And we haven’t been! in addition to fine arting around, I have also been preparing to release the Panda Chronicles books as ebooks! Now, I am a print kind of person. I like books. I like reading them, I like the smell and the feel of real books. But over the years, a number of people have asked me, “Whhhhyyyyyy can’t we have ebooks toooo!?!?!?!?” Well ask no more, your dreams are about to come true! I’m still in the process of getting the books set up, but since it is Pinky and Bubba’s birthday month, I thought I should get those ready first, so that we could have…
But first, let’s have the next episode of Pinky In Wonderland!!!
If you need your memory refreshed, here is the previous episode:
And what magical place has Pinky found, as she opens the tiny door?
As I mentioned before, Book 7 (Don’ call mee boo boo) and Book 8 (The Pinky Defense) ebooks are now on sale for $2.99 for Pinky and Bubba’s birthday month. Also, if you haven’t bought the print editions yet, you can also get the ebook along with the print edition for only $.99! TBH, I don’t know if this is retroactive for people who have already bought the book, but if anyone wants to try, let me know, okay?
I am slowly getting the other books set up as ebooks (partly because Amazon finally made it easier (not easy, just easier) to convert the print PDF into an ebook without having to jump through a lot of hoops or pay someone hundreds of dollars to do it!) and I’ll keep you posted as to the progress!
Panda on!

After today’s episode, we are going to take a little break from our story (don’t worry! it will be back!) as I have some very impatient pandas who are saying, “but what about US??? Aren’t WEE as important as Pinky?”
But on with the show. I think we all need to take a deep breath and process what revelations were revealed this week, check our voter registration, and remember what’s important.
What could be behind that door? Stay tuned, panda fans!
In addition to the fall of western civilization as we have known it, I received news that a dear friend has passed away this week. I met her almost 20 years ago, not long after I started spending time with my friend Mr. Badger. I hate that this gentle soul is no longer on this earth to remind me of what is important. She’d started having trouble keeping her balance, and soon her mind started to wander off to places we could not follow. I don’t know what comes after death, but I will continue to hope it is something like this:
As you know, pandas are big fans of Shakespeare.
Panda on

…And another episode of Pinky in Wonderland, of course! Because it would not be the Meihem’s big day without some attention hogging by Pinky! As a special bonus, I’ll add some of the Meihem/Pinky classic ‘toons to this post, because I am THAT kind of panda!
We know just how you feel, Pinky. We feel the same.
There must be cake!
And who is this mysterious ally of whom they speak?
The forces of Meihem are only barely in check.
Can you believe those Meihems? blaming everything on Pinky?
Happy Birthday Mei Lun and Mei Huan (aka Bert and Ernie in the pages of The Panda Chronicles. Read all about it in Pandapocalypse NOW! Book 5 of the Panda Chronicles!) And if you’re not already following me on Twidder (@PandaChronicle) what are you waiting for?
Meanwhile, You Know Who continues to embarrass us in the UK (which according to him, is known by many names, but most people don’t know that.) I’m surprised the Queen did not give him his tea in a “to go” cup. I don’t know what is going to happen when he meets Poot’n tomorrow, but I can’t imagine it will be good.
Best to keep watching panda videos. I hear they are very relaxing.
Pandas to the People
Bob-not an enemy of the people-T Panda
While He Who Must Not Be Named continues to burn the country down, and pardons others who do so, we must not lose sight of the sight of the fact that pandas are very calming and maybe we should all go lie down and watch some panda videos…mebbee have some cuppycakes…oh yeah and VOTE and CALL YOUR SENATORS (ESPECIALLY THOSE WITH ‘R’ SENATORS) and tell them not to set back the country 50 years because that would just stink.
It would be better with a little salt and balsamic vinegar, but not bad!
And let’s all wave BuhBye to Scotty (sticky fingers) Pruitt. Unfortunately the new guy is a former coal industry lobbyist, Ah…to live in Wonderland with Pinky…that would be much better.
Be the Bear!
Bob T Panda
There is way too much going on in the world right now, so sit back, pop open a BooBeer and enjoy…hopefully in air conditioned splendor!
Well dis is a pickle an’ a half!
Be the bear!

I hope everyone is having a lovely 4th of July holiday, for those who celebrate (and for those of you who have a day off from your various labors. There are no paid holidays among the self employed, you know!) The right wing propaganda media has claimed that today is the beginning of the second Civil War. Would that be the War on Civility, or did they have something else in mind?
I am endlessly entertained and cheered by the Writers of Twitter, who are whooping things up with their #secondcivilwarletter parodies over on Twidder. If you are a partaker in all things tweeting, I highly recommend getting yourself over to read the many #secondcivilwarletter offerings and maybe take a crack at writing your own! It’s really fun.
Drink mee!

Pinky makes the spontunerous decision to follow Mr. Bun down the rabbit hole! What is waiting for her there? Was this smart? Was this prudent? What will happen?
And, if you are just tuning in, you can start with episode 1 here.
Sometimes being spontunerous can get you in over your head, Pinky!
And speaking of spontunerous, I thought that this comment posted by Jeannie on last Friday’s post had so much good information about voting, that it bears (bears! Get it?) repeating, in case you didn’t see Friday’s comments!
If you’re not a voter, make the spontunerous (that’s a Pinky word) decision to get registered and get ready for the November 2018 midterm elections! Pew Research says, “since 1842 the President’s party has lost seats in 40 of 43 midterms — the exceptions being 1934, 1998 and 2002.” Midterms are a great for “expressing dissatisfaction with the president’s performance or ensuring that his party doesn’t control all the levers of government.” http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2014/07/24/voter-turnout-always-drops-off-for-midterm-elections-but-why/
470 seats in the U.S. Congress (35 Senate seats and all 435 House seats) are up for election on November 6, 2018. You know your vote can make an impact! https://ballotpedia.org/United_States_Congress_elections,_2018
Voting can be overwhelming — so many boxes to check! Check out helpful voter tools like: vote411.org, factcheck.org, votesmart.org, votersedge.org, ballotready.org to make voting easier for yourself. Panda on!
And a big thanks to all who went out and marched yesterday to show your support for #FamiliesBelongTogether! I attended a small but sincere gathering in Coupeville WA, of just a couple hundred people, but I saw pictures from Seattle, DC, and many of the other large marches and they were awe inspiring! Dis. Will. Not. Stand!!!!!
#PandasResist!
Bob T we shall overcome Panda
PS: It’s Canada Day today! Happy Panada Day to our neighbors from the north! get those guest rooms ready in case…um…any of your panda satirist friends have to make a speedy retreat!
Oh Panada, Oh Panada, how tasty are your maple leaves….
