Another boring repeat!

2 Replies

Yeah, yeah, I know, this is from the FALL equinox, but really, the equinox thing…it’s really the same, except that the days are getting longer instead of shorter.  Alright…it’s not exactly the same, in fact, it’s completely different, but that does not matter!

spring back...fall forward...it's so confusing!

 

What’s important is that I can re-run this cartoon so that I can draw some new cartoons to bring you next week, and not have to work ALL day on saturday.

Don’t forget to turn your clocks…um..is it forward?  I’ll find out if I’m late for yoga tomorrow.

Be the Bear!!

PS…Did anyone hear about the cuppycake ATM on “Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me” this morning?  Huzzah! cuppycakes make National Panda Radio!

The 2012 Preview!

Well, here at the Institute of Contemporary Panda Satire, we have big plans for 2012!  I thought it would be a good idea for the Panda Chronicles  to let you know what is in store for this year. Here is the first of the 2012 previews!

We’d also like to give a Roll of Honor shout out to Sue F. and Lucilla T. for alerting me to the Cuppycake ATM (with sprinkles!)  I sure wish that there was one around here! Huzzah!

I’m sorry, but the party you wish to speak to is all tied up…

The panda kindergarten is "busy" ...can you call back later?

We at the Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire have long been big fans of Lynda Barry.  While she may not have invented the use of “inappropriate quotation marks,”  she excels in their use.  As I see it, she uses them to shift the meaning of a word or phrase to be more ironic, or to emphasize the word’s inappropriateness.  How cool is that?  I also have always loved how she shines a light on the demeaning jobs that most artists take at the beginnings of their career.  Lynda, you are da bear!

Meanwhile, back at the panda kindergarten,  Mehitabel has gotten her …um…revenge on the panda kindergarten.  But don’t worry, they are working their way loose, even as we speak!  Prepare yourself for Bob’s presidential campaign, more of Babette‘s travels (Italy!!!!!), the 2012 Panda Olympic Games, and Panda Idol, the new Reality TV show about pandas that is sweeping the nation!

Till next time, Be the Bear!

5 hours to go on my Kickstarter project!

Dancing in the moonlight with Pandas

Dancing the "red dot" dance in the moonlight with Pandas!

In honor of the last 5 (or is it now 4?) hours of my Kickstarter project, I thought that I would do the Red Dot Dance under the moon (with pandas).  For anyone who was in my neighborhood last night, I hope you were not shocked.  Apparently the dance is working, but we’re not quite done yet.  I still need $700 more to reach my goal and get all the funding.

Thank you for all your help so far.  I couldn’t do it without you all (and you know who you are!)

The panda kindergarten swears that they will release Mehitabel as soon as my goal is reached.  (They caught her again, as she was making a break for the front door)

You are all the bear!

Be the Bear!!!!!!

Only 27 Hours to go….

I hate to be whiney in my posts here at the Panda Chronicles, but unless 101 more people pledge $25 (or more!) my kickstarter campaign will leave me kicked in the butt.  (and there is no telling what the panda kindergarten will do to Mehitabel!)  So, if you are at all inclined to do so, check out my project at:

Bob, Babette and all the other pandas thank you!  No matter what, you all are da bears!

Kitten escape! The story continues!

Before we get to our feature presentation today,  I’d like to give myself and all the pandas (AND MEHITABEL, didn’t you mean to say?)  a quick pat on the head because we are less than 300 visits away from reaching 20,000 visits to The Panda Chronicles.  I don’t know what this means in the real world, except that maybe you, dear reader, are coming back again and again and telling your friends, or mentioning it on your blogs.  So whatever your doing, thanks. Be the Bear!

Run,kitty, run!

A big thanks and a Roll of Honor entry to Linda M. for her suggestion relating to cats and toilet paper!  You da bear!

Mehitabel eludes the panda kindergarten…but for how long?

Mehitabel's great escape....

We last saw Mehitabel being carried away as hostage to the panda kindergarten, who, in their own misguided way, were attempting to inspire people to sign on to the cartoon boss’s Kickstarter proposal.  Several people signed on, but not nearly enough.  Fortunately for Mehitabel, it distracted the panda kindergarten so that she could make an escape.  But this is no time to relax!  They are still after her!  Can Mehitabel outrun the panda kindergarten?  Will she reveal her hiding place after the insult of being called “Mr. Kitty?”  The saga continues.  4 days left to support this worthy project!

We weren’t surprised, were you?

And the envelope, please...

 

It was no surprise that Babette de Panda won the oscar for “Best Female cartoon panda in a movie of 2 minutes or less”  for her role in “Your Brain on Pandas:the Movie.”  We see her here, accepting her award, with the filmmaker and perhaps her paramour (?) Bob T. Panda.  A night on the town is certain to follow!  Hope the panda-razzi don’t catch her in any compromising situations.  A special thanks to her wardrobe consultant and designer of her fabulous gown, Sylvia C..  Well done!

Tune in to morrow to find out if Mehitabel can escape the panda kindergarten.

Be the Bear!
