This is a story about a carefree panda who consistently gets in to silly situations.

Meet Panda Monium WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY SCOTT PRICE

PM is a distant cousin of Winnie the Pooh

Panda Monium is a decent Panda of a Panda; having more likes than dislikes.
He visits the 100 �" Acre Wood very rarely because of the lack of bamboo trees and also for the time he found Eeyores’tail, and thinking it might be related somehow to a bamboo stalk… ate tail, bow, and nail.
(Christopher Robin had to destuff him to get the tail out.)
PM (FOR SHORT) THOUGHT ALL WOULD BE MAD AT HIM BUT NOBODY WAS…
EVERYBODY KNOWS HOW A PANDA IS.

ANYWAY…PM is the same stature as THAT OF Winnie the Pooh but much more, shall we say, more with roundness.
Some of his favorite activities are climbing stumps, lying in the sun & shade for LONG moments, rolling down hills, and “snackering on a brushy pile of Bamboo.”
(Bestly, snackering on Bamboo.)
When he comes to the forest next is anyone’s guess...
but is likely to be “sooner than much later”, says Rabbit.

Now... Panda Monium is equally as adventurous and LIKES “Hiking Happy” JUST LIKE Pooh bear DOES but the major difference between the two is that WINNIE THE POOH IS A BIT MORE CAREFREE AND PANDA MONIUM IS A BIT MORE CARELESS. THIS is WHAT SOMETIMES GETS PM INTO A “snaggy situation” FROM TIME TO TIME.

HERE IS A story THAT was told to the animals of The 100 �" Acre Wood by their friend, Eagle.

“For one time, not two or more weeks of Tuesdays ago, PM was on one of his ‘rolling down a hill times’, and rolled clear through the 100 �" Acre Wood, south to north of course, across ‘Rocks & Stones River,’ and finally resting at the base of “The Bee Tree.”

“Well... the bees didn’t take kindly to the unnecessary noisiness that a Panda can cause, so as soon as PM LIFTED himself up, the bees were coming down to see him,” SAID Eagle.
(Not much for stinging, these bees are... but much for chasing.)

“So P.Monium knew it was time to go and go hurriedly. He ran as fast as a Panda can run while being beseeched by bees, and ran through the ‘Sticky Stick Thorn Patch’; all the while the sticky thorns poking his paws, nipping his neck, and tripping his toes.”

“PM must have known it was rude not to say “Hi” to someone if ONE CAME KNOCKING FOR A visit,” SHE SAID.
“BUT I BET HE THOUGHT THE BEES WOULD UNDERSTAND, under the circumstances, THAT HIS ‘KNOCKING’ INTO THE TREE
WAS PURELY ACCIDENTAL.” LAUGHED EAGLE.

“And running around the 100 �" Acre Wood is a big task and one that PM surely wished he had not had to undertake but something was a thing already underway.” EAGLE WISELY STATED.
“My how he must of wished for some bamboo to be “snackering” on at that moment.”

Now Eagle knew all of this because it was she who was flying overhead that day and viewed the whole spectacle from a Northwesterly perspective and found it so humorous that she almost lost the wind a handful of times and Nearly landed in a tall oak tree with many leaves of various colors and sizes.
“I believed he WOULD OF run the entire forest THAT DAY,” she calmly stated.

But pm was in for some luck and WAS eventually ALLOWED TO STOP running, FOR THE BEES HAD STOPPED FROM ALL OF THE Chasing. Surprisingly, He ended up right at Owl’s door stepped tree  and, being one of a long line of skillful Owls, proceeded to “take in” PM and “take out” the thorny thorns from the ‘Sticky Stick Thorn patch,’one by one.”

“I know this, with my wonderment of hearing that Owl can be somewhat of a lecturer whilst working, and that is exactly what he did; lectured PM on the dangers of “rolling down a hill times,” the entire time that he worked on him.”

“The End.”

“Oohhh…Eagle does tell such a good story, does she not?” said Pooh.
“Yes... she sure, sure does Pooh!” an excited Piglet squealed.
The other animals of the 100 �" Acre Wood unanimously agreed and all wondered when they might GET TO see Panda Monium.
Of course, Pooh WAS HAPPY THAT PM WAS OK BUT WAS mightily THINKING hard about SOMETHING ELSE, AS WELL,
FINALLY exclaiming, “Maybe I should see about the bees tomorrow,” he said excitedly.
“You know, make sure they are alright and things.”
 “Pooh,” said Christopher Robin. “You stay away from that Bee Tree now, understand?”
“More than many a thorny thorn was taking from a prickered patterned Panda this day,” Owl stated.
All the other animals nodded in agreement.
“We all know you want to check on the honey, Pooh... not the bees,” a wryly rabbit said.
“Oh bother,” Pooh replied.

And as everyone simply departed, most graciously I might add, with a thoughtful thanking to Eagle for a wonderful wispy story, Christopher Robin put his arm around Pooh and whispered in his bear friends’ ear.
“You really want to check on the bees?”
“Well, I’m sure they are alright,” spoke a quietly thinking Pooh.
“I really am more concerned about the hunny.”
“Oh Pooh,” giggled Christopher Robin. “You really are a silly old bear.”  -- THE END
