Pandamania

Panda, Inc. - National Geographic does pandas, including this surfeit of cuteness clip of
Tai Shan and mom playing. Watch for panda mania to break out in the U.S. as we count down to Tai Shan's one year birthday. At 53 pounds, he is coming along nicely - see his progress in his photo album since birth. Meanwhile, in the wild, happy news that the panda population may be double what was previously thought. Yay! (via adorablog's great panda file.)
I was going to do house cleaning today but then you showed me pandas. Now it's all over. Damn you, mjjj! Damn you! [shakes fist]

More Wild Pandas Than Thought, Dung Study Reveals
When I read that headline, I thought "what an unfortunate name for a Chinese panda researcher". Then I saw that they really were surveying panda poop!
In high school English, I got an "A" for a satirical poem (in the style of Ogden Nash) titled "The Panda"...
Just because you're a gift from Mao
As a bear you're a sacred cow...

Pandamonium. Also, he will always be Butterstick to me.

Don't forget the (so-called) lesser panda, whose perpendicu-hilarity approaches meerkatty levels of cuteness.
