Shooo...I'm RIPPED. As in sculpted. Check me out, I got the big manly man chest and the narrow tapered hips. I am a god among pandas. Way to go, Lauren! No worries about me developing an eating disorder. Who would want to tamper with this physique?

"Moomm...stop hogging the bamboo! Mooommm!"

Handsome. Pensive. Badass. The Many Adjectives of Bandit.

Look at me, I'm so cute you can't stand it.

Mom can't stand it either, which is why she's trying to pull me off the log.

The Winner

After hours behind closed doors, and lots of bamboo cigar smoke, we have reached a decision:

My fans are funny people.

Seriously, we could take this show on the road. I could sit on stage and mug for the audience while my fans make funny behind a mike. We could make millions...

But you're reading this to find out who the winners of the caption contest are, so here they are without further delay:

Honorable mention: H said..."Now tell me, does this paw look like a stick of butter to you?" (Note: I loved this one--go H! My panel thought the others were technically funnier, but I fought to get you some love . Bandit always looks out for his own.)

3rd runner up: Pandafan2 said... "I swear, I was not out partying last night with those rascally cheetah cubs. Um, just ignore that empty bottle over there...I swear, here all night sleeping."

2nd runner up: Pandaholic said... "Mom, seriously, I will not take tips from MY fans for YOUR booze. Flashing them won’t help either. Aaah!"

1st runner up: Kimimary said... "You want me to do WHAT with Su Lin?"

And finally, the winner of the Bandit T-shirt of HER choice...

My personal trainer, Lauren!

"Mom, get that g-string off your head. Even the geckos are laughing at you."

I can personally attest that this has happened before, so it was kind of eerie to read. I hate those stupid geckos.

Lauren you can email me your snailmail addy at banditthepanda@hotmail.com. I promise I won't give it to credit card companies or anything like that. Oh and just copy the link to the shirt you want from www.cafepress.com/banditthepanda

Finally, (I hope my other peeps are still reading) as runners up AND honorable mention (yeah H!) you all get your choice of a Bandit bumpersticker, magnet OR button.

This whole process really sucked b/c you made it so hard to decide, so all of you should be proud of yourselves. We might do this again sometime...but for now, I need a nap.

Do you know what I'm saying?

My editor thought this picture the Zoo had up on their website was hilarious and asked me what I was thinking/saying in it, but I decided it would be more amusing to have my fans put the words in my mouth.

The winner gets...a FREE Bandit t-shirt (when they are ready). You know you want it.

So what am I saying?

(Note from Lawyer Katie: Contest ends 12/8/2005. Only Bandit's clownmunch editor is not allowed to participate.)

As recommended by H:

"Smoke 'em if you got 'em, boys"

My charm grows...

"Sorry babe, you're not my type."

"As the drop-dead handsome world famous outlaw mountaineer surveyed the precipice beside him, a low chuckle rumbled up from his throat. Paltry things like 20,000 foot drops held no interest for him. This mountain was so awed to be climbed by him that it asked for his autograph before he even got started."

Now, with CAPTIONS!

Captions, by popular demand:

"Awwriiiight, still getting bigger. BanDIT, BanDIT, BanDIT!"

"I do the whole "noble animal" pose better than anyone in the history of the world. Who needs the Sphinx?"

"Girls, you're not fooling anyone with that stethoscope. I do not need my heartrate monitored twenty-seven times a day."

"Fastest land animal? Eat your heart out, cheetahs."

"Don't think I don't see you standing there taking this picture. I have 290 degree vision."

"I wonder if I can drag this straw over and put it in Mom's nose while she sleeps..."

"Ok that's far enough. Put me down. Now is fine. Now. Do it."
