ILLICIT cuppycake distribution is happening on the street? If young pandas can’t get cake at home, who knows where they will turn!
Legalize cake today! Prevent illicit cuppycake activities.

Close only counts in horseshoes and it is still December 9th here in the Pacific Time Zone! Keeping with the theme of “Thirty Six Views” where Mt. Fuji sometimes appears very small in the distance, here the cake exists only as a reflection.
Ta-da!
I see….cake.

Those of you who have been following the pandas for a while know that I like to make the occasional “fine art” joke or reference and this series is no different. A few years ago I saw some of the prints by famed Japanese artist Hokusai that were part of the Thirty Six Views of Mt Fuji series, created between 1826 and 1833. French and American impressionists were very influenced by Japanese prints, so much so that French artist Henry Riviere created his series Thirty Six Views of the Eiffel Tower, which I also had the privilege to see at the same exhibition where I saw Hokusai’s prints.
But what the heck does this have to do with pandas and panda satire? I have decided to dedicate this series to those artists and call it:
Twenty six Views of Cake.

Who says you can’t learn something from pandas?
ESCAPE!!!!!! Yes, today’s panda word is Escape! While I’m diligently searching for an “F” word that I can use in polite company, tomorrow’s pandas will bring you a full on cartoon (with the lovely and charming Mehitabel!) as well as ..um…pandas!
and now…
Ta-da!
Escape! Come with me, little cake, so we can be alone together.

By the way, for fans of little Mr. Wu, he will be back soon! His mother thought that the panda kindergarten overstepped a few boundaries when they …um…baby sat with him during the letter “C” and that perhaps he should be just a little bigger before she let’s him play with the Pandy Kindy again.
Well, enough with the sad panda faces. One of the things that I love about pandas (besides being one myself) is that pandas never give up, no matter how hard things get. A late (as in gone from this earth) gardener friend had a theory about plants. She said that they entice you with their beauty or their fragrance, so that you would get down in the dirt and do stuff for them like water or weed around them. Maybe the plant was one that provided food, but mostly they had no purpose but to be beautiful, and they made that work for them so that you, the gardener, would support their existence.
Pandas are a little like that. They are the very definition of high maintenance girl friends. (Take Babette de Panda for instance…) It is really, really expensive to have a panda around, but it’s worth it! Well, I would say that, wouldn’t I? The recent tragic loss at the National Zoo in Washington DC underscores just how delicate they are as newborns. But those which survive bring enjoyment and grace in ways which can’t be measured.
OK. Now let’s get funny!
Bob T. Panda is running for president! Huzzah! Let’s see what the Cake Party has to offer to the American voter!
Vote for Bob!
And did I mention that we have now had over 40,000 visits to the pandas here at The Panda Chronicles? Stay tuned during this election season for more from the party of pandas! There will be cake! Huzzah!

Father Ri Ri and Mother Shin Shin have the honor of the first panda of the 2012 panda kindergarten class! They reside at the Ueno Zoo in Tokyo Japan. Congratulations! Huzzah! The panda birthday season has begun!
There’s no season like the birthday season!
Recently TWO generous (and, may I say astute?) readers of The Panda Chronicles have bestowed the Versatile Blogger Award on me, and I have been MOST negligent in fulfilling all the requirements of the office. I really have no excuse, other than that I have been busy drawing new panda cartoons, and the panda kindergarten hid my laptop. I think they have been watching panda videos on YouTube and then used the power cord to tie Bob up in the basement.
According to the rules of the Versatile Blogger Award, I must:
Right now I have two different people to thank and do all the other stuff, so I am going to multitask and combine these two award. What are you going to do? take it back? First I need to thank hungry4momos at http://stowawaytrain.com/2011/12/28/the-versatile-blogger-award-merry-christmas-to-me/ because, well, she nominated me first. And then, before I even finished all this WORK I now had to do, Then The Rubbe at http://therubbe.wordpress.com/2012/01/11/were-famous/ went and gave it to me AGAIN.
Ok, so…thanks. Don’t do it again. (Just kidding…It’s kind of like being prom queen, except I don’t have to wear a dress.) ( Now could someone give me “The Humorous Blogger Award?”)
My favorite part is coming up with 7 things that people might not know about me, so here goes:
1. I like to watch movies where lots of things blow up, usually after a very destructive car chase.
2. Mehitabel is a real, actual cat. She REALLY doesn’t like pandas.
3. The panda kindergarten is the expression of my deepest, inner self.
4. I have actually seen “the Nixon Pandas” (look it up).
5. In addition to cuppycakes, I am particularly fond of those little pink and white frosted animal crackers.
6. I do “voice overs” when watching panda videos, where I do dramatic presentations of what I think the pandas are saying.
7. I am not really a panda.
In the interest of further procrastination, I will nominate my versatile bloggees um…later. OK?
Well, you read this far, you should get a cartoon, so here it is!
Well, it is an election year!
