Today is Canada day.
Since both Cade and I are Canadian, I’ve come up with:
The, (in or particular order), Top 10 Totally awesome things that came from Canada
1: Tim Hortons
The best, and most addictive coffee in the world! Yes, there are a few Timmy Ho’s in the states, but not nearly as many in the great white north. I would love to see one hit Florida, some day.
2: John Candy
One of my all-time favorite actor-comedians. bringing us great films such as: Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Canadian Bacon, The Great Outdoors, Who’s Harry Crumb, Spaceballs and a crap-ton more.
I really don’t understand why they aren’t available in the U.S. These things are freaking awesome. The last trip I took to Canada, I even found Ketchup Doritos! If you ever see a bag of these delectable chips, do yourself a favor and buy them.
No description needed.. Clicky the linky
5: Jim Carey
Another great Actor-Comedian. I remember watching Carey doing stand up as a kid and laughing my ass off. I don’t recall a single Jim Carey flick I didn’t enjoy (even The Number 13 was good).
6: Dan Aykroyd
Ok, so this list has turned out to be more “people” than “things”, but they need to be mentioned. Spies Like Us, Ghostbusters, The Blues Brothers… The list goes on!
7: Wolverine
He may be a fictional character, but he’s bad-ass enough to mention him being Canadian 
I have been part of or witness to many arguments of which X-Men character reins supreme. Most people agree with me when I mention Weapon X
No… It’s not ham!
9: Niagra Falls
Yeah, I know its on both Canadian and American soil, but –ahem– The Candian side is totally better
And lastly…
10: Me
Because my mommy said so
This post brought you by: the letter “Eh”?

Failed Objective reached its 1-year anniversary yesterday. Yay us.
Back in February, This comic was skipped — Never to be posted. Until now!
As Supernaut mentioned earlier, we decided to go back and fix some issues with past strips after completing the Blue Lotus crossover. Finishing and posting the skipped strips was part of what I call “The Shit List”
Because this strip is so old, we felt it only right to post a link to the strip for those who:
A - were left feeling ripped off because they never got to see Cade physically damaged.
-OR-
B - are too lazy / don’t really care to go back and find which strip was missing in the first place.
So, here you go — MISSING STRIP #1 (click me…I’m a link)

This seems to be an annual thing with me: my skull be peeling. A vendor took me out to lunch on Thursday. We went to one of my favorite places: Chipotle. As it was a lovely day and there was available outdoor seeting, we decided to lunch outside. Mistake. The right side of my face, top of my head, and the right side of both arms ended up getting nice and burned. I started peeling pretty good yesterday. I’m hoping most of it will come off in my shower this morning. I’m sure you all just loved reading about this, but I felt like sharing. Just imagine what my co-workers might have to endure today.
As you may have noticed, we haven’t had a new comic in a while. Well, what’s going on is we’re catching up on more than half a year of goofs, oversights, and missed comics.
Over the months, we’ve had a number of comics that didn’t quite turn out how they were intended and we said we’d go back to fix them later. We’ve even had two comics that were written but skipped in the interest of some timing considerations.
Unfortunately, we never seemed to find the time to make the fixes. We decided what we’d do is go on a temporary hiatus when we finished up our part of the Blue Lotus story and go back and take care of the shit we wanted to take care of. We’re getting close to the end of that work. As long as Anorok doesn’t get totally knocked out by whatever nasty he’s coming down with, I’m hoping we’ll have something to show you guys by next week.
In the meantime, I give you more music. Folks who know me — and observant readers — know I’m a big fan of punk music. I particularly like when punk bands cover pop songs. There are several albums dedicated to this. One that I have is Punk goes Pop. One of my favorites from that album is Slick Shoes’s cover of Mandy Moore’s “Candy:”
Another favorite of mine from that Album is Stretch Arm Strong’s version of Pink’s “Get This Party Started:”
I recently found out they released a follow up last month: Punk Goes Pop 2. I don’t have it just yet, but I’ve already found one I particularly like. This one is for Anoroc’s wife, Elina. It’s A Static Lullaby doing Britney Spears’ “Toxic:”
Enjoy, folks.

Morning Gang,
Sorry for the lack of update for Wed. My good buddy Boomer was in town, which doesn’t happen all that often, so we thought it was only right we bring back some old tradtion by sharing a few stories while drinking some beverages. Attempting a comic after said tradtion, it would have probably looked more like scribble from a 2-year-old. So instead, I leave you with this. Check out these 2 sexy bitches!
Boomer Cardinale and Chad Youngblut

Feeling a little under the weather over the weekend. I have most of the comic done, but need to finish some coloring and shading up. Come back a little later today to check out the next installment of the Blue Lotus crossover! In the meantime, check out another piece from my college days. I call it… Uh, Well I never named it
- Anoroc
The image above is a piece I did back in College. It hangs in the entrance to my home office. I’ve had a real lack of sleep this last week. With all of the extra hours I’ve been spending working and having family in town. My breakfast has consisted of 4 cups of coffee and a snickers energy bar, which is just enough to get me by until around 4pm EST
New strip goes up late tonight / early Saturday morning. Stay tuned!
- Anoroc
Sorry everyone, for the delay in updates. I will have one up today. I took a trip to Tampa and was there all weekend. This pretty much killed Friday and Monday’s schedule.
Stay tuned for today’s comic……. Tonight!
