    I can’t afford to lose any more weight. I have to protect my tummy with this bamboo before I eat any more of those toxic US Treasuries.

    Ya know – it really bugs me the way Obama is Panda’ing to the big banks, it makes the rest of us look bad.

    Ever since the markets slowed down, the zoo has been slow. Hope I get layed off into the wild!

    Well......at least the animal kingdom is not experiencing
    "Panda-monium" over this whole U.S economy thing.

    You might think that this is a real panda and that he is chewing on a real bamboo, but infact, the panda is really a Madoff relative and the money is hidden in the bamboo!

  13. BettyAnn, Nacogdoches,TX

    Hurry up on that Planet in Peril series. If the earth runs out of bamboo there will be PANDA-monium!

    As much money as the U.S. owes China, I figure I can kick back and live like a Pharaoh, a Caesar or maybe an AIG executive.

    Lousy photographers...I can't even relax with a snack without it turning into a photo shoot. I wonder if they'll stick around after hearing my pitch for a new and improved ponzi scheme.

    Due to the massive job loss in America, workers take jobs in zoos posing as cute panda bears!
    or
    Look hun, I got this great job that not only gives me shelter but also free food!
    or
    The zoo officials can't understand why they have to replace their zoo keepers on a weekly basis.

    Deep Thoughts: I wonder if they'll put my picture on the new world currency? I mean, George is great and all on the dollar, but a panda on global money, what else could say world peace better? Hook me up Zhou Xiaochuan, I'm ready for my close up.

    First Lady Michelle Obama's much-loved White House Garden Project came to naught when the Republicans were unexpectedly returned to office in 2012. Shown here, famous American born panda "Little Tim" consuming the last bit of bamboo available.

    This panda enjoys a final meal before finally heading to the U.S. , where he was refused entry for the last 8 years or so , as he is well known to eat 'Bush's'
