Panda History

1 Reply

Just how did pandas arrive on an island in the north Puget Sound?  We, at the Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire provide for your edification, our theory of how this occurred. We repeat, this is a theory and is not to be construed as fact.

We’d also like to thank the “mysterious donor” to the Institute, of this beoooteeful banner which now graces our international headquarters.

Isn’t it splendid?

More panda fun is in the works and will be posted “soon.”

Be the Bear!

PS: there is still time to get a 30 Days of Pandas poster from Cafe Press Pandyland store! See link to the right in the Panda Commerce division before Christmas.  What could be better than pandas under the tree!

While we work on new cartoons, such as new outfits for Babette de Panda, the growing problem of panties discarded in space from the panda space shuttle program, and the panda kindergartens holiday production of “Panda on the Roof” (a musical), we bring you a panda holiday greeting!

Till next time,

Be the Bear!

They’re here! They’re Here! The Scottish Pandas Arrive at last!

We have been waiting for this day for so long, (never mind that in the real world it happened a week ago, but still…) the pandas arrive in Scotland.  The ZooNooz reporting team would have been there to meet them, but for a slight communications mix up.

A big thanks to all of you who have been visiting The Panda Chronicles.  Your brain is officially now on pandas.

I know, that in reality the pandas “Sweetie” and “Sunshine” have already arrived in Britain, but as usual, I’m a tardy bear.  So here is the first episode of the Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire’s version of the events that are unfolding in Scotland.

Also, Babette has been posing for photos everywhere!  Stay tuned for new outfits and photos of our favorite bears about town.

Also, a brush with fame to report.  The image of the 30 days of Pandas poster (available from Pandyland at Cafepress) appeared in an ad for Cafe Press on The Daily What’s page with a video of ….ooo get ready…MISERY BEAR!!!!!!!!!!  Our hero!  Check out our Pandyland link on the right.  But really, Misery Bear is our personal hero. Check out M.B. too.

Pandas painting at the National Zoo?

7 Replies

So what’s this I hear about pandas at the National Zoo in Washington DC taking up painting?  Are they trying to step on my paws?  I thought I was the only panda who was also a painter.  The next thing you know, they’ll be drawing cartoons!  I guess I’ll have to get over it, but I like being special.

Hooray! Pizza IS a Vegetable!

Woke up to news today on the radio that Michelle Obama was pissed off that schools were allowed to count pizza as a vegetable.  Now, we pandas really like Michelle (so, if you are a republican or tea party enthusiast you can stop reading right now and cancel your subscription) but we think she has crossed the line on this one.  I was really sure that french fries are vegetables too.  I’m still planning on voting for your husband next year, but I think you need to back off on the pizza thing.  I’m just sayin’, ya’ know?  Other than that you are really awesome.

Scotland Steals my Idea. Naughty Scotland! Bad!

Did you not hear it here first? Did I not, more than two weeks ago, mention that the pandas would have their own Panda clan tartan? And now, I read this story on Panda News:

Edinburgh Pandas Get Their Own Tartan
Nov 02, 2011 09:51 am

Yang Guan and Tian Tian the two pandas who will be arriving at Edinburgh Zoo any time now, have been given their own Scottish Tartan.

The Scottish tartan goes back hundreds of years as a way of identify members of a clan. The new panda Tartan is primarily made up of black and white the colours of the panda with some gray to soften it, there is also red which symbolizes China, and green to represent bamboo the pandas main food source.

 

I ask you, does The Panda Chronicles know everything first, or what?
