When the panda finished shooting, he headed for the exit, and as he did, the confused, lone-surviving waiter amidst the carnage, asked “Why?”. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.
“Well, I'm a panda,” he says at the door. “Look it up.”
The waiter turns to the relevant entry in the manual and, sure enough, finds an explanation. “Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves.”
Although I have heard this joke an untold number of times... it still makes me howl with laughter.

A duck walks into a pharmacy and says, "Give me some Chapstick - just put it on my bill."

I played your 8 random things today, by the way. Thanks for the tag.
As a comma-challenged writer myself, I too find this joke hilarious.
It's a great book too!
"Eats, Shoots and Leaves" is an excellent book ;o) It's like a bible to me.
Cute!
I love Pandas... they are

All the justification I need to continue being the grammar and punctuation whore that I can be!
Good think about blogging, you can write what you feel and forget about the comma's.
Here's a corney one for you.
A horse walks into a bar. Orders a drink. The bartender asks, "Why the Long face?"
Eats, Shoots and Leaves is an excellent book. And a great joke.
