Day 13: Oh no, It’s Friday the 13th!!!!!

Oh, they are back in the soup now! And on Friday the 13th to boot!

But we’ve come such a long way already….Bwahahaha!

I have NO idea how they are going to get out of this dilemma! (OK, not really, but I’m trying to build some dramatic tension here!)

And since it is Fabulous Furry Friday (the 13th!!!!) here are some encore presentations of some seasonal pandas!

Day 17…Naughty or Nice? you decide!

‘Tis the Season!

Babette de Panda, celebrating the season at Radio City Music Hall, in the company of her good friend Frances A….

…which serves as a reminder of how much fun YOU can have with panda paper dolls! (And a kind of cheesy reminder that there will be more outfits for Princess Pinky and the Twins coming up this weekend! Huzzah!

A big pandy thanks to all of you who have bought books this month, a portion of which will be sent to Pandas International (huzzah!) to support actual panda stuff! But don’t stop now! Perhaps more people on your christmas list would enjoy one or more of The Panda Chronicles books! Visit our book page here.

Another big pandy thanks to all who have supported Whidbey Life Magizine’s print project on Indiegogo. You guys are the bears!

Day 11 The Wizard of Wu Continues…

2 Replies

…Good thing the action has become slightly less scary, at least for a little bit. Fans of Mr Wu’s latest adventure will be happy to know (well, maybe not…maybe you LIKE waiting a whole week between episodes) that we will be featuring Mr. Wu’s adventure on most weekdays, until it’s over, in order to bring you another short holiday theme Wu-self-story.

Huzzah!

Good witch Bee, the Bear, to the rescue!

And just another gentle reminder to check out Whidbey Life Magazine’s Indiegogo project! In the meantime, keep being the bear! More Wu-venture this week!

You know how when you get a DVD these days, it has all these “special features” like interviews, “the making of…” blooper reels…well, we wanted to have a bunch of that stuff too. And so, 31 Days of Pandas is pleased to bring you….

Stay tuned later this month for the outtakes and blooper reel!

Pandas will NEVER get the better of Mehitabel!

And if you’re still on the fence about what to get Aunt Mildred and Uncle Larry, (not to mention your brother in law) for Christmas, Kwanzaa or Hanukkah, there’s still time to order The Panda Chronicles Book 1, 2, or 3! Keep Panda Satire alive and well by buying our books!

Day 9 And now a special request…

2 Replies

Greetings Panda fans. Many (if not all) of you know that in addition to being the leading practitioner of Panda Satire in the world (Hey! Until I hear different, I’m claiming it!) I’m also a painter, who shows and sells her work. I live in a wonderful little corner of the world, which besides abounding in natural beauty, has more artists, musicians, writers, actors, chefs and artisanal farmers than you can shake a stick at. (Shaking only, no hitting please.) A little over a year ago, some dedicated, hard working folks thought it would be a really good idea to have an information resource that benefitted both the creative types that live and work here, but also anyone who wanted one publication in which to read about all the amazing stuff that’s going on around here.

And so, Whidbey Life Magazine was born, an online resource for all the arts and culture on Whidbey Island.! There are a small band of us who write for the magazine, but the magazine is mostly fueled by the hard work of its founders, Jan Shannon and Sue Taves, not to mention our long suffering, cat herding editor, Patricia Duff. So now, they would like to add a twice yearly print magazine to the mix, so as to reach even more people who want to know what all the fuss is about on Whidbey Island. They have started an Indiegogo campaign to make that a reality.

Of course, the pandas wanted to…um…help:

Don’t believe EVERYTHING the panda kindergarten says!

I know that many of you who are reading this might not live here, but I hope you’ll take a little time from your day to see what we are doing here, and maybe even support this project. You can read WLM here and see if we offer something you would enjoy and like to support. And then, check out our Indiegogo project. And…um…a date with George Clooney is NOT one of the perks. Just sayin’.

The panda kindergarten is waiting to take your call.

Be the Bear!

Day 8 Two pandas are cuter than one

10 Replies

Oh, stand back Princess Pinky, your cuzzins from ‘Lanta have entered the fashion fray! (I even think Mr. Wu will make an appearance in the paper doll pages as well!)

There’s lots-o-fun coming up in the 31 Days of Pandas extravaganza! Mr. Wu’s adventure, the Wizard of Wu is going to ramp up with multiple episodes in the week ahead, so that the adventure can finish before Mr. Wu’s brother Yun Zi has to go off to his new life in China. (what? say it isn’t so!)

But first, Here are the Atlanta Twinkies with their favorite outfit for relaxing around the den.

Huzzah! It’s Bert and his brother Ernie!

…and their jammies! Huzzah!

Some computer size adjusting may be necessary to make the outfits fit. Just sayin, my tech skills are vastly inferior to my drawing skills!

Day 7: Pinky wants another outfit…

6 Replies

…so who am I to say “no?”

Just the thing for a cozy evening at home with mom and the panda cam!

Tell me a story, mommy!

Stay tuned for the next 31 Days of Pandas installment. Tomorrow, the Twinkies model their paper panda attire!

Day 5: Bring Princess Pinky Home With You!

2 Replies

OK, not really, but a Princess Pinky Paper Doll is the next best thing..um…isn’t it? The dedicated pandologists at the Institute for Contemporary Panda Satire are committed to bringing you the best in panda satire, not to mention all the fun that pandas can bring. Many (OK, three) of our fans have already had fun bringing Babette de Panda paper dolls along with them on trips near and far. Just think how much fun you can have with Princess Pinky!

Princess Pinky and her very first tutu, gifted to her by her big brother Tai Shan!

Your Princess Pinky Paper Doll has been scanned at a higher resolution than most of our cartoons, so it is suitable for printing. To print, click on the image and then save to your computer. You can glue pinky to cardboard and make a thingie so she can stan up. then you can dress her in her new outfit. There will be additional outfits added during the month of December.

You know the rules: Pinky is for your own non-commercial use, so don’t make me send the panda kindergarten after you. ‘kay? And if you are inclined to take pictures of Pinky at her holiday parties, be sure to post them to Bob T. Panda on Facebook, or @pandachronicle on Twitter.

Huzzah! Be the Bear!

Day 4 and Episode 13 (gasp!) of the Wizard of Wu

2 Replies

Oh boy! I’m so excited at how many panda satire loving people are showing up for 31 Days of Pandas! But don’t think we are going to leave Mr Wu hanging in the breeze in his most recent adventure, The Wizard of Wu!

Things are really getting scary in today’s episode, the 13th in the series! Hmm…I said that last week, but this time I really mean it! That cat is just so evil!

(Note to Mehitabel’s fans: it’s fiction. Get over it.)

Who would have thought cuppycakes could be enchanted?

Oh boy, ‘dis is getting so ‘citing!

Thanks to everyone who ordered books yesterday. Pandas in China thank you! You are the bears!

Be the Bear!

Oh my gosh, is it day 3 already? 31 Days of Pandas continues!

Note to all: Someone has declared that it’s Giving Tuesday, and so what better organization to give to besides Pandas International? For everyone who buys a book today through my createspace stores, I will donate $2 to Pandas International! Buy them for yourself, buy them as presents, support real pandas, because without pandas, there can be no panda satire! (And then where would we be?)

Oh boy, I’ve managed to keep up with the pandaing for the first three whole days! Huzzah! There were a few little …um…backstage scuffles as Mr Wu had words with Princess Pinky about who was the cutest bear to ever live, but I think we’ve got everything all sorted out now.

Right? “…um…yeah” “…’kay” “…oh, all right!”

The end of the year is always a bitter sweet time…the days get shorter, my birthday season is just about over, and rain and cold are the order of the day. It was these melancholy musings that made 31 Days of Pandas an absolute necessity. Who can be blue, when you have pandas to look forward to every day? So, tell your friends and co-workers, and invite them along for the ride.

You’ll all wonder how you got along all these years without pandas.

Sweet dreams, little bears!

I hope you are enjoying this year’s 31 Days of Pandas! Stay tuned for more from the Wu self (as he continues his adventures in pandyland tomorrow with Binky, Mr Toasty, someone who looks remarkably like Mr Wu’s brother, and all the rest of the crew!)

If you wish every month was 31 Days of Pandas, consider owning your very own copies of Books 1, 2, and 3 of The Panda Chronicles! Check out our book page and invite pandas to come live with you!
