One of the downsides of trying to pass myself off as a writer, is that now I feel obligated to go back into my posts and correct nit picky stuff like punctuation, spelling and capitalization.
Sigh.
I am just a simple cartoon panda, trying to make my way in the world. Does punctuation matter?
so what’s the big deal…
…about punctuation?
My apologies to the very funny writer, Lynn Truss.
Have a fabulous, furry weekend!

Well….
As you are about to see, Mr Wu is about to have another adventure! I must interject, however, that from the expression on Mr. Wu’s face in the second panel, he is, shall we say, becoming a member of the panda kindergarten in very good standing.
In fact, he could be stepping into the ring leader position, if you ask me.
Sigh. His mother had such high hopes for him. (And what will all his girlfriends say?)
“Up in the Air, Junior Pandas…”
Can this cub be saved?
Be the Bear!

PS: You KNOW that I would never let anything happen to Mr. Wu, so just relax and enjoy the story.

Things are hopping here at panda central…paintings to paint, cartoons to draw, airplanes to build! But in all the confusion, Mehitabel has taken the reigns (for today, at least) although the pandy kindy have a little project they are working on with the Wu self, so I think they will be on the loose very shortly!
Who will let the panda out of the bag!
Let the WHAT out of the bag?
Cats! When you care to send the very best!

Well, I, Mehitabel, have wrested the computer away from those stupid pandas. There has been way too much emphasis on those darn pandas and it’s time for me to do something about it! Quite frankly, it is much more cost effective to have a cat than have a panda live with you. Do you realize how much pandas eat? And that’s not even taking panda rent into account.
Enjoy the cartoons from the archives of Mehitabel and those other cats that came before me.
Why Cats are superior to Pandas
Say it isn’t so!
See you next week with more…sigh….pandas.
Mehitabel, being the CAT!
Off we go…into the wild blue….oh was that a clue? What is in THAT BOX that the panda kindergarten brought for Mr Wu? Could it be……
Will the panda kindergarten get it put together before Bai Yun gets home?
Did they read the assembly instruction manual? Do they know what they are doing???!!!!!!? I can hardly stand the wait!!!!!
To see what happens next, tune in next week for Mr Wu’s Big Adventure, Part the third. right here at our regularly scheduled blog.
Bwahahahaha!

And while you are in the neighborhood, check out my new post on Nothing Overlooked!
It is a really um…dangerous thing to suggest things to me sometimes, because you never know where they will lead. Today the “responsibility” lies with panda videographer extraordinaire, Doxiemom Pandamonium, for carelessly stating, “Boy I’d like to be inside your brain for a day.” Ask, and sometimes, you shall receive!
What’s that stuff getting all over my paws? Oh…it’s frosting!
Remember, if a news story is the sort that would make it to Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me on NPR, it is probably something we can make fun of with pandas! Feel free to leave news stories or suggestions in the comments. I won’t use them all, but you never know how a chance remark will react in a brain filled with cream cheese frosting. Huzzah!
And if you haven’t signed up for our monthly (more or less) newsletters, just click here or on the button near the top of the right hand column! I’ve got plans for sharing all sorts of things that don’t make it on to the blog, as well as discounts on books that will only be shared with newsletter subscribers. We won’t share your address (not even with the panda kindergarten!) and we won’t flood your inbox constantly. Just once in a while.
Tune in Wednesday for the next episode of Mr. Wu’s newest adventure!
Till then, be the bear!

PS: I’m pretty sure that you don’t get into a panda’s brain just by getting really, really tiny and crawling in through their ear. Science was never my strong suit.
Well, here it is, Friday at last and I completely forgot to have something ready to speed you to your weekend, with dreams of pandas dancing in your brain. What was I thinking? To be honest, the cold that wouldn’t die is still making my head a little fuzzier than usual, but fortunately, there are many pandas in reserve!
But I do like the Friday pandas to be relevant, so today I give you the prologue to the Shakesbear pandas, as I am getting ready (finally!) to start working on some of the Shakespeare for Pandas plays that my brother wrote last year as part of a 31 plays in 31 days project.
Shakespeare is currently on my mind, because Whidbey Island’s very own Island Shakespeare Company is getting ready to launch a very exciting project. Stay tuned for news of this exciting development!
After all, the playings the thing….
The panda kindergarten will, of course, have a central role in the proceedings!
Have a wonderful weekend and Be the Bear!

Happy panda dance, it is Mr. Wu Wednesday and the beginning of a NEW adventure for Mr. Wu, with his …um…good friends, the panda kindergarten. Please don’t tell his mom, ‘kay?
Whatever could be in the box the panda kindergarten is delivering to Mr. Wu?
This cartoon answers the age old question: is there a child alive that actually listens to what their mother tells them?
By the way, if you haven’t signed up for the Pandyland News Newsletter yet, what are ya waiting for? It comes out approximately when ever I remember to write it (and I am figuring it out a little better, so as to eliminate those pesky newsletters to the wrong lists…oops!) and contains news and information about my books and special offers not available anywhere else. Just sayin’ you might want to check it out. It’s free to subscribe and you can easily unsubscribe if you think it is a complete waste of time. And, if you haven’t gotten the two (2!!!!) Panda Chronicles Books yet, it has a nifty discount through the month of April, which is only available to newsletters subscribers.
Be the Bear!
