Atlanta Surprise Part 2

You can believe us when we say that some things are just too absurd to make up, and this is one of them!  It’s almost as good as a Tea Party press conference!  We now join Bob T Panda and Mehitabel in their ZooNooZ interview with Mei Lan, at the Panda Channel Studios (in an undisclosed location!)  This will definitely go down in Panda History.

We’d like to report, in other exciting panda news (is there any other kind?) that the Australian pandas are “dating”  Stay tuned for further updates.

The Atlanta Surprise! (part 1)

Well knock me down and put feathers up my nose, I couldn’t have been more surprised at the news coming from the Panda Ranch and Day Spa in Chengdu.  Yup,  Mei Lan, Atlanta’s Beauty turns out to be a boy!  I suppose Lun Lun knew, but for some reason she didn’t say anything.  Panda watchers are all scratching their heads in wonder and embarrassment, no doubt.

Here’s the first of 2 cartoons on the subject, so hot off the press our pen is still smoking!

Stay tuned for the 2nd installment (Yes there really is one, it’s just not done yet)!

Till then, here is a little seasonal cheer from the Institute of Contemporary Panda Satire!

More from the private emails of pandas!

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.

News of the Panda World: Secret Emails Revealed!

Well the wait is over and it is now known that Mei Xiang is not and possibly was never pregnant.  While we are sorrowful for this disappointing news, it didn’t stop us from hacking into Mei’s private email correspondence with other pandas at American zoos.  Here is a transcript of a number of communications:

 

firstpanda@nationalzoo.bear to gracelandpanda@memphiszoo.cute :  Hey, YaYa. Guess you heard the news by now.  I tried to keep the thing going, but finally, I was just tired of the charade.  How goes life in the south? LOL

 

gracelandpanda@memphiszoo.cute to firstpanda@nationalzoo.bear:  I feel your pain.  The thing is its just way to hot down here to even think about…well you know.  And by the way, just ignore anything Lun Lun writes to you. She’ll pretend she’s sympathetic, but she really just wants to brag.

 

Firstpanda to gracelandpanda: Thanks for the heads up. I put my phone on voice mail so I don’t have to listen to her.  Who cares about Po or Pooh’s toilet training anyway?  I’m just hoping they’re not going to come up with some excuse to deport us. It’s not MY fault, if you get my drift….

 

southernbelle@pandamom.cub to firstpanda: Hey sweetie, I keep getting you’alls machine and I just wanted to send my …condolences.  Did I tell you about the cutest thing Po did yesterday?  Well, I have to go. A mother’s work and all…bye now!

 

surferbear@sandiegozoo.beach to firstpanda:  Hey man, so sorry about your loss or whatever. We’ll all be meditating and lighting incense for you, that is if I can find some matches.  After that little incident in the gift shop, they are keeping a close watch on the fire-sticks.  Keep the faith. Peace and love….

 

Well, that’s all we have time for today. Tune in for more of our clandestine look into the private communications of the American panda populace!
