Internet's been down and I've got one unhappy panda..... What to do?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking 4 years ago

Thanks to marine cables being cut in the Mediterranean Sea somewhere the internet in Egypt has been non-existent for the last few days. It is back today, but only 1t around 50% capacity and it looks like it won't be up to full strength again until the New Year. sad

Now the panda ain't happy about this at all, which in turn means that I too am far from joyous at this news. He has been unable to watch his shars in Bamboo Futures online, his live webcam link to a female panda in China has been inaccessable; and his Amazon gift wishlist hasn't been updated for days now..... So how should I keep myself and the Panda occupied then if this continues?

I am considering spanking him until he passes out, or turning the air-conditioning to sub zero temperatures so he hibernates; but if these ideas fail then I've got me some issues. Any suggestions because things are really starting to get scary at this end! shocked

You and your panda were the first two I thought about when I heard about the cables the other night.

Better stalk...ummm...I mean stock up on some fresh bamboo shoots.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

The first reference might just be the ticket mykl. I could train him to become the world's first stalking panda! "Panda Assassin for hire" might make me some serious bucks. thumbup Either that or I can teach him how to scuba dive and he can go and fix the damn cables himself.....

I could send you some of the bamboo furniture that I got for my panda James. Yours might like it. I cannot wait to give mine some. I am bursting with excitement. It is a good job it will soon be christmas day. I am worse than the grandchildren.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

How's the bamboo furniture stuff going anyways wanderer? Sure, send some my way as I am confident he'll appreciate munching away on a dining setting and bar stools! I am happy to hear of your Christmas excitement too. No Christmas here I'm afraid and it's a normal work day for me. I will make up for it when I eventually get home though as I have missed a number of them now. Thanks for the response and the furniture offer. Merry Christmas to you and yours! wink


myLot reputation of 91/100. wanderer086 (478)   ranked 25 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

I have put the furniture in the post James. I hope you have plenty of glue because I had to chop it up a bit to get it in the envelope. I think you are being a bit selfish keeping Santa to yourself. You could share him with your neighbours. I am sure they would appreciate it.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

I just got a strong sense of deja vu wanderer. Did you feel it also? confused I will buy glue tomorrow and will also slip customs some bribe money just in case they decide to stop the parcel and ask lots of questions.


myLot reputation of 91/100. wanderer086 (478)   ranked 25 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

Sorry James. I am cracking up. I am getting too old to take part in two discussions at once especially when they are started by the same person. The next step is the looney bin. Mind you going round the bend rapidly probably fits in well with the panda spanking


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

Just always make sure that the looney "bin" is always clean and sterile wanderer as you don't want to pick up any germs along the way. When you get around the next bend, make sure you wave to me too please as I will more than likely be standing there on the corner! w00t

myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

Feeling sorry for me today?? You bang your head or somethin'? confused Oh the joys of highlighting my lack of ability to be infallible Bo. When I grow up, I wanna be YOU! By the way, you don't own any SHARS in Bamboo Futures?? Tough times may be ahead, so you'd better get some as they hold their value well.


myLot reputation of 94/100. thebohemianheart (2780)   ranked 13 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

You want to be ME, when you grow up!? I think you are the one who has bumped his head, Sweety! Got get it checked out, now. I think you may have some serious brain damage going on there.*LOL*


No, I don't have an shars. I don't know where I'd go for stalk in bamboo.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

"an shars"?? Alrighty then! confused I don't need to get checks for brain damage Bo. That would be like jumping into water just to see if it's wet! Some things we just KNOW already. w00t I gotta hand over the PC so I will catch you tomorrow. Cya and have a great evening Diddly!

Awwww. Poor James. sad I know this is not the time for smartass remarks, but pandas are one of the few bears who don't hibernate. Yes. I was watching the National Geographic channel a couple months ago. They hunt for food all winter long. Bamboo, their only food source, is being cut down for furniture and other things, so they have a lack of food during the winter to keep them fat and warm. sad That's why they are endangered. Since your panda won't be hibernating, I suggest you two try to get along. Just keep that bamboo a comin' and he'll be satisfied. Anyway, have a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I hope you'll have a better internet connection by the next year. That is my Christmas wish to you. wink


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

So you've gone and gotten all "Nature Expert" on me steflane? confused I wish for you a wonderful Christmas and New Year also and the wish you have given me is a very important one for me, so I hope it comes true! May 2009 be a year of constantly flowing insane inspiration and unlimited PJ's for you and thank yopu for your warm wishes. I am confused yet humbled by the niceties and you can't ask for more than that!


myLot reputation of 98/100. steflane (1236)  4 years ago

Wait. I actually inspire somebody?! blink


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

It's OK steflane..... I am afraid and confused by the very thought also! confused

6. myLot reputation of 93/100. SViswan (5864)   ranked 34 out of 496 in panda spanking   4 years ago

I guess there's been so much panda spanking that the panda is probably considering giving you a few spanks just so that you may see how it feels to be spanked!
Now, it wasn't poor panda's fault that the cables were cut, was it? Why does he need to be spanked (I'm assuming it's a 'he').
For a change, why don't you leave the computer alone and entertain the panda? That would be fun for everyone concerned (except maybe you....but if you put your mind to it, you can enjoy it). How about singing a few Christmas carols? The panda will be amused for sure.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

I never considered the karma angle Sandhya! shocked But I have always been a gentle spanker so I don't think this would be the case here..... I had to leave the computer alone for a few days when the cables were first cut and it was very frustrating, so I am not sure if I want to do that again anytime soon. The panda likes to surf the net himself every now and then too.

We have done the carols thing already by the way. We covered a few classics like "Hark the herald pandas sing" and "Jingle Spank, Jingle Spank". He LOVED it! (You may have just inspired a new discussion topic for me there Sandhya! lol) Well thank you for the comments and I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas! Oh, reasons aren't really needed to give the panda a good spanking either. he knows it, I know it; and everybody wins! wink


myLot reputation of 93/100. SViswan (5864)   ranked 34 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

Gentle or hard...a spank is a spank! Did you consider what it does to the poor panda's self esteem? Goodness James, it's time you had a class on panda 'etiquette'! I'm glad you sung a few 'panda' carols and both of you enjoyed it....quite a sporty panda, I have to say!
You probably should start a new interest group on mylot 'Inspired discussions'..lol


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

The constant spanking makes them feel NEEDED Sandhya. There is nothing that inspires higher feelings of self esteem than being needed! confused


myLot reputation of 93/100. SViswan (5864)   ranked 34 out of 496 in panda spanking  2 years ago

Thanks for the BR, James! I think u need to be around to award me the 'Golden Pencil' or would you rather I accepted it from the Panda?

I do not think yo should torture him further, he has already had enough and he deserves a chilling session this Christmas. Doesn't he? lol
And what would to tell to someone who has the Internet connection going reasonably alright but cannot catch up with you for she has to keep up with some classical procrastinator's slumps? wink


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

But I'm the one getting tortured here mimpi! NO INTERNET! shocked The connections seem to be improving day by day though, so I will give the panda's butt a little respite now I think. As for the procrastinator slumps, you KNOW how to handle them already, yes? Spanking, spanking and MORE spanking and the creativity will flow like a river! wink Thanks for the comments and Merry Christmas! Nice to see you active.


myLot reputation of 99/100. mimpi1911 (8497)   ranked 1 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

Thanks James and I know it now! I finally did something very different, new and first time ever. It was special. Never felt this good in ages. Thanks to the spanking. wink

Did you get my PM???

NO, i did not get your reply and i thought you must be upset with me. Was just thinking of mailing Cjay about this. Need to speak. Pls if you can mail me.

That's very odd! I have just resent a new PM for you. happy If I was upset about something mimpi then I would say so by the way. Don't be silly now! wink


myLot reputation of 99/100. mimpi1911 (8497)   ranked 1 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

And you just made my Christmas. Thanks James. lol

I hope the connectionis back to full strength now James especially with Christmas. Can't have your Panda going bserk on a special day like this. Next time keep a set top box hand James , Satellite TV. Keeps the Panda engrossed with the remote. Better still get him the live version of his girl friend. Come on its Christmas time, let your furry friend have a great time.happy


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (7104)   ranked 4 out of 496 in panda spanking  4 years ago

Welcome back yaar! wink The connections do seem to be picking up again now which is great. It became quite frustrating for a while there and the onada was really becoming difficult to handle. At least I now have some extra experience on how to deal with him if it happens again and can prepare. Satellite could be just the ticket, but he will probably try to use the dish as a water bowl and break it! He is having a good Christmas though, even without a girl panda. Carols, gifts and extra spanking all round! Thanks for the comments and Merry Christmas to you and your family my friend! happy

I notice that this discussion was posted a year ago, but at first I thought that it might explain your recent absence on here. I know that it is not an addiction to Facebook that has been keeping you away, as I seem to remember you adamantly insisting that you would not go there.whistle Therefore, perhaps you have been spending more time at home with your panda lately and forgetting to take care of the pandas of your on-line friends.confused
