If Pandas Went to the Movies...

If pandas got to go to the movies, they would want to sit through endless repetitions of Kung Fu Panda or maybe The Incredible Journey, the new version staring pandas, of course. They would rush up and down the aisles, throwing popcorn at each other and leave chewed up bamboo ends under their seats. They greatly appreciate the air-conditioned theater but they will spill their bamboo colas on the floor.

Cats, on the other hand, are models of propriety and almost never bring bunny parts in with them. We also have much more in the way of cinematic cats to choose from. I can't say I think much of the portrayals of cats in Babe, Stuart Little, or Harry Potter, but as they say, there is no such thing as bad publicity. If you need to get in touch with me, I'll be watching The Aristocats.

Ta-ta for now,

News Flash! Pandas Invade Coupeville!

OK, there are not pandas ACTUALLY stampeding down the streets of Coupeville, WA, but they have made their first appearance in the Whidbey Examiner. They will be appearing every other week as of August 1st. While large daily newspapers are biting the dust left and right, smaller weekly papers are still alive and well. They are worth supporting. (especially ones that publish "Way Better Than Working's Panda Chronicles") After all, we're ALL endangered, more or less, ya know. If you want to support the "Panda Chronicles", you can subscribe at http://www.whidbeyexaminer.com/ Just tell em, Bob the Panda sent you! thanks.

Panda On!

Open Season on Bunnies

Mehitabel here with the latest field and stream report.... well, I wasn't really in a stream, but we've been having a bit of rain recently and I got all WET while I was out... um... shopping. So there I was, bringing my faithful servant a really nice present, and she rushes out and makes me DROP it, and drags me in the house, rubs me with a towel, and then SHE LETS THE BUNNY GET AWAY!!!!!!! I ask you, is this how a grateful person reacts to a charming little present? I mean I didn't even get to bite its' little head off. I may have to go back out on strike again if she keeps this up. And don't even talk to me about birds. (The brightly colored ones taste the best, you know.)

Well, that's all for now. Hopefully she'll let me out of the house soon, and then......

Panda On!
