More from the year in review….

Whilst I was pandaing around this last year, I noticed that there was a need for more books about pandas! For the last several years, we here at Way Better Than Working have been completely obsessed about, well, pandas.  Bob T’s book, Going Panda, was well received among reviewers of books written by pandas, but pretty much no one else.  Hopefully, it’s re-release at next years Pandapalooza! will bring a wider readership.

till then,

be the Bear!

More From Bob’s Year in Review!

Last February, we endured the traumatic repossession of Tai Shan, american panda.  Tai was born in the National Zoo in Washington DC in 2006 (please correct us if we are wrong) and was recalled to the panda reserve in China.  So what was that all about?  I mean, he didn’t even speak chinese, for crying out loud!  It was our understanding that he was not allowed to bring his big screen color TV and his 17″ laptop computer. because the other pandas would be “jealous.”  And, he has to share a room. I ask you, is this fair?

Well, that all the year in review for now. Till next time,

Are we not Pandas? Are we not Bears?

While we contemplate with great excitement and anticipation, the arrival of pandas in Scotland in late 2011, we share with you another highlight of the Panda Olympic experience.

After the um…unfortunate incident with Mehitabel’s gingerbread house, we thought the pandas (ESPECIALLY the panda kindergarten class) should lie low for a few days.

We’d also like to invite all of our fans out there in Pandyland to vote on their favorite cartoon (on this site, so don’t vote for Dilbert or the Far Side) of the past year.  You won’t win anything if your favorite cartoon is the winner, other than a big pandy thank you for reading our humble little cartoon.

Be the Bear!!!!!

Panda on in 2011!

I think I’ll dress up in a Panda suit…..

Everyone would be a panda if they could!

There is a series of photos making the rounds and several alert panda fans have sent it to us here at Way Better Than Working enterprises.  It shows a pandologist dressed up as a panda, holding a toddler panda. How cute is THAT????? Keep those cards and letters (and emails) coming!  We can never get enough news about my panda cousins!   Mehitabel is a bit reluctant to get in touch with her “pandish” side, for some strange reason.  After all, you should never say no to a panda.

we are still very excited to have figured out how to get these posts onto my in-your-facebook page.  One small step for bears, one giant leap for pandas!

What Pandas want for the Holidays

Ok, we admit that we haven’t done any new cartoons in WEEKS probably, but it gets so busy this time of year.  So, you’ll just have to put up with this look at postage. You remember postage, don’t you. You know, you write a letter…. a what did you say?  You know…well, anyway, you write a letter, put it in an envelope and then put a stamp on it and eventually it gets somewhere else. pretty nifty, huh?   I guess pandas are naturally luddites.  It’s part of what makes us so charming.

We want to send out a big pandy hug to our friend Henry, who doesn’t have anymore reason to think about pandas now that he’s done with his book.  You can still watch us on youtube. I’m sure it will cheer you up.

Lun Lun Does it Again!

Pandas everywhere are rejoicing!  A new baby panda was born at the Atlanta Georgia Zoo!  Thanks to the dedicated and diligent panda-philes at Panda News, we are alerted to a new  US Panda! (China has taken note and the increased rental bill is in the mail!)  What is of great excitement to all of us at Way Better Than Working, is that this panda is a SCORPIO, which is very unusual for pandas, most pandas being of the Leo or Virgo persuasion.   We at WBTW are in the midst of OUR birthday season, so of course we are extra excited!  What a great occasion for Cake!

What a Piece of Work is Panda!

Panda News has just informed us that Lun Lun at the Atlanta Zoo is preggers!  We anxiously await the pitter patter of panda paws in the Atlanta nursery!  While we wait for the riveting story of bear “Entrapment by Donuts” in Washington State, enjoy another installment from the Olympic archives!
