OK, because I just think they are so much more funny when seen all together, here are all three episodes of Wheel…of…Pandas! Yes it’s true, a new episode was completed today! Pretty neat, huh?
Episode 1
And yes, the new episode presented, of course by the Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire, in all it’s glory,episode 3:

Yes it’s time for another episode of All My Pandas Time of Our General Pandamonium, brought to you by our sponsors at Pandyland Productions, a division of the Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire. (whew!) Let’s see what is about to happen at the Hospital for Indigent Pandas, founded by the lovely and philanthropic, Babette dePanda.
Will Doctor Bob T. Panda ever notice the lovely and lonely Babette? With whom was the good doctor drinking bamboo-tinis? Where did Nurse Babette get her lovely uniform? Will Mehitabel survive her attack of “A-Pandacitus”? Tune in next time to All My Pandas yada-yada-yada.
Be the Bear,

As we continue our journey into advanced stages of Pandaphilia, something really exciting (if you have a kind of boring life, it was exciting) happened. I got a comment from a writer who was working on a book about pandas. He wanted to know how I started doing “panda satire” and whether I knew of other examples of pandas as humor material. Of course I had to look up his blog, to make sure he wasn’t some nut job, (or at least a harmless one, hopefully). He turned out to be Henry Nicholls, a serious writer of popular science with many magazine articles and a previous book to his credit. One thing led to another, and I offered to let him use one of my cartoons to appear in his book. Yay! It certainly was one of my proudest moments when I got my copy of The Way of the Panda hot off the press, with my very own cartoon in it. Attention Panda Shoppers! If you haven’t read this book, get it now! (available through Amazon and maybe your local bookstore.) Pandas, of course have written some of their own books as well:
But of course, sometimes when pandas write books, their um…fact thingies are not always um…welll…correct.
Well, till next time,

Every once in a while, a story about pandas or a panda video makes us, here at the Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire, want to create a cartoon commemorating the moment. A few days ago we watched a video of a woman being overwhelmed by the panda kindergarten while having a “cuddle time with pandas”. Here is our interpretation of the event. I’m sure this has never actually happened. OK we’re pretty sure.

Since no one has caught us yet, we will continue to publish personal emails that we have …um… hacked into through the Panda Network. (you didn’t know there was a Panda Network, did you.) Here are the next group of emails that we have managed to transcribe:
firstpanda@nationalzoo.bear to taibaby@pandaranch.boo : Yes I know you wanted a little brother or sister, but I still don’t think they would have let you come home. Have you made any friends yet?
taibaby@pandaranch.boo to firstpanda@nationalzoo.bear: Aw mom, the other pandas talk with an accent and I can’t understand them half the time. Last night they short-sheeted my bed and hid my toothbrush. So, in answer to your question, I have most definitely NOT made friends.
gracelandpanda@memphiszoo.cute to firstpanda@nationalzoo.bear Hey I just talked to Elvis and he said not to worry, there’s going to be a whole lot-a shakin’ goin’ on and we will both have our little cubbies. And just ignore Lun Lun when she asks if you started packing yet.
Firstpanda@nationalzoo.bear to surferbear@sandiegozoo.beach : That was a really sweet offer, Gao Gao, but I think Bai Yun would rip my ears off if I even looked at you sideways. Not to mention Tian’s feelings would be really hurt.
surfermama@sandiegozoo.beach to Firstpanda@nationalzoo.bear : You better believe it, BooBoo.
All of us in the panda-sphere are not so patiently waiting for Mei Xiang, the First lady of Pandas in our nations capital to…well, do something. Keepers at the zoo were first hopeful that she was “with cub” but now are not so sure. And yet, she continues with her hormonal hi-jinks while we all hover over our computers waiting and watching. So of course, it’s time for another cartoon.
Welcome to “Mei Watch”!
Be the Bear!

Just wanted to give you a heads up that we are still following the drama at the National Zoo, with our first lady of Pandas! Mei is continuing to engage in hinky behavior. Some would say she is milking the situation for all she is worth.
As a small bear, I loved game shows! to think that an everyday, run of the mill panda could win fabulous prizes by being on a game show? swell!
Be the bear!
