10:32 am [Link]	No comic. Have fan art instead. It looks like Brandon's job was the culprit for the delayed comic. I'm in possession of it now, but since it's already Wednesday I figure I'll keep holding onto it for Monday's update. In the comic's place, we got a neat bit of fan art from Jason Miller! http://banishedonline.com/ An excellent job at both drawing and color. :) You can find more of his artwork here: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/jasonmiller/ Funny Farm news: http://funnyfarmcomics.com/ This isn't the first time I've abused animals in the comic. Mewn ran over a horse with farm equipment not long ago. A monkey is trapped under the Atlantic ocean. The list goes on.... I'm still working on Book 3, but with the recent house and puppy purchases, it's been hard to dedicate time on it. :\ (1 comment \| Leave a comment)

11:46 am [Link]	No new Banished? I have some theories on why there's no new Banished strip up. 1. Brandon recently just moved and the internet got busted up again. 2. Brandon recently got a new daytime job and that, plus his other art obligations, got in the way of making a new comic. 3. I have somehow horribly offended Brandon and he quit without telling me. I think #1 is the most likely scenario, but you'll find out when I do. :) Funny Farm still updates, though: http://funnyfarmcomics.com/ People seem to think Gulius will be pulled over by the cops. It's as if they believe driving with a dead moose squished in your car is bad thing. (Leave a comment)

01:15 am [Link]	I needed a week off My intentions were to update this daily, but last week....oooooh boy. So much was happening all at once. Enough to make writing in here low on the priority list. I'll see what I can do this week, however. Funny Farm: http://funnyfarmcomics.com/ "I" know female moose don't have horns, but I like to make characters ignorant of that fact. Or maybe I'm just covering my own ignorance by saying that. I guess we'll never know. ;D Banished: http://banishedonline.com/ There is no Banished update (yet), only because I'm not in possession of a comic to update with. :\ More on that later.

09:12 pm [Link]	"Naked news is off the air" was up there for 3 months... http://www.funnyfarmcomics.com/d/20080424.html I finally put the effort into getting the dropdown storyline box updated. It's easy to forget that little thing is there! It still has some bugs to work out (because it's not the easiest thing in the world to program), but I'll get to them the next update. I know for certain the next comic series will have a much more simplified method of directing you to stories. I may try that Oh No Robot thing to make individual strip searches possible too. You may notice me experimenting in different layout and styles in recent comics. It's just me practicing up new techniques for when the brand new comic series begins. Hard to believe it's only a few months away. :\ (Leave a comment)

09:10 pm [Link]	Gulius should've been gay Sorry folks who exclusively read Banished. Since Funny Farm updates daily, I guess it'll get the most attention here in the blog. \:) http://www.funnyfarmcomics.com/d/20080423.html Whenever I write Gulius in a scenario like this (I forget how often it has been done to him) I always think to myself "Gulius totally should have been a closeted homosexual". He always exaggerates when he flips out upon seeing two guys showing affection, like someone trying to pretend he doesn't really like it. Plus he's always angry, which could be due to keeping his gayness bottled up. It all makes sense! Thing is he's not gay and I've always been paranoid someone is expecting me to "out" him. I'm also noting a lack of lesbians in my comic. That's maybe due to every other comic out there being overrun with the things. (2 comments \| Leave a comment)

01:13 pm [Link]	Streamlined! http://funnyfarmcomics.com/ Updated and simplified the main page. Includes a tag board even. (Leave a comment)
01:14 am [Link]	Perhaps I'm not as horrible at gaming comics as I think! I drove back from my home city not long ago. It's late and Moose has a puppy appointment tomorrow (technically today) morning, so I gotta' make this brief. Banished! http://banishedonline.com/d/20080421.html Brandon makes the best expressions! It's amazing what Rak can survive. It's just a shame every obstacle keeps getting worse and...more irritating. I know there's still a lot missing from the site, such as the art page and some of the link to various other sites who have generously linked to our comic. I swear I'll get to it this week! :\ Funny Farm http://funnyfarmcomics.com/ Ha ha! Joystiq (a great big gamer blog) added the comic featuring a...."unique" twist to Brawl in their weekly webcomic roundup. http://www.joystiq.com/2008/04/20/weekly-webcomic-wrapup-minus-garfield-plus-lair/#comments Take THAT, Penny Arcade! ;D (actually, PA is one of my favorite comics. Not because of the video game content, but rather how Tycho and Gabe produce a finely crafted comic strip in general). I reckon' the people coming in from Joystiq will be sorely disappointed to see that FF isn't the type of comic they typically read.... (Leave a comment)
