PandaBaby is True Fiction.

Welcome to my Pandababy Blog. A panda bear is an unlikely animal - a bear that eats bamboo - a contradiction in every aspect. This blog is true fiction, also a contradiction in its essence. Yet both are real, both exist - the bear and the blog. Both can only be described by contradictory terms, such as true fiction. Please be pleased to enjoy these stories of our ancestors. They are True Fiction. Every person in my blog lived in the time and place indicated. They are my ancestors and relatives, and their friends.

News of the World

We interrupt this genealogical blog with an urgent news bulletin:

ANNOUNCING THE WAR OF THE TEDDY BEARS!

Yes, the Teddy Bears have reverted to their aggressive origins and have launched a massive air attack on the country of Belarus.  The President of Belarus recently bragged about his country's impenetrable air defense system.  The Teddy Bears, in retaliation for his hubris, parachuted into Belarus by the hundreds, launched from a single small airplane.

The bears, known and loved for their peaceful, friendly ways, have shocked the world.  They have particularly shocked the two Belarusan generals who were fired as a result of the assault.

Although the President of Belarus at first denied the invasion, the bears collective messages of Democracy and hope were too much for him.  He admitted the bears had landed, and waving his fists in the air, he declared, 'We shall get those bears!'  He also ejected the Swedish diplomats from their embassy, for their part in the bear conspiracy.  It seems the plane that carried the Teddy Bears was launched from Sweden.

Sweden retaliated and expelled the Belarusan diplomats from Sweden.

Stay tuned for the latest developments.  We are holding our breath, waiting to see if the Panda Bears are going to join this war of nerves, and if so, to which side they will lend their support?

Signing off for Pandababy, I am your reporter on the front lines of the news!


BREAKING!  BREAKING!  This just in -

After meditating on an especially juicy piece of bamboo, Pandababy asked,

 "What is the sound of one hand clapping?"

"It is obvious that bears must stand united, or fall individually.  We shall, of course, support the brave and reckless actions of our cousins, the Teddy Bears."

Some Readers have questioned if this story is entirely fiction. Here is a link to the news article from Christian Science Monitor, "Teddy Bear Air Drop Still Roils in Belarus".
