Throughout the many years I have been doing this website I have ranted and raved about being in love. One opinion of mine that I have tried to force on other people is the fact that I believe in "love". If there's one thing that can bring you out of the depths of hopelessness it's love. 

Where did my belief in love come from? From this point on I will try and explain and explore my one belief that will never falter.  

Throughout life one will experience different kinds of love. The love of your parents, the love of your family, the love of a girlfriend, the love of a friend, the love of a child. You will give love, you will get love, fuck you might even destroy love or even create love. 

To tell you the truth I don't know where this strong belief came from. I have experienced love in every form and it feels good to love and to be loved. 

I truly believe love is why we're on this earth. To experience it, to experience something so great that it cannot be defined in words (although I'm trying my best to define it). What makes love so great? I'm not sure to be honest, that really sounds like a simple question doesn't it? I truly don't know the answer to that one. 

What makes love so great? I think I can touch base on a portion of why, but there's so much to love. The main thing is that love feels good. 

Something just recently has dawned on me. I have always been a very materialistic person, that is until recently. If anyone out there is reading this, stop what your doing, take a long hard look at your life and if you think even for a second that your life is defined by things around you and your taking for granted your family, your friends, your lover. Then wake the fuck up.. Open your eyes and look at your lover or your child and imagine life without them. Sucks doesn't it? 

Wake the fuck up

06/07/2003  9:21 pm (This was written out of continuity and should not be read with the other sections of the comic. I just felt like writing.)

Betrayal?

“What the fuck!?!?!?!”

“How dare you!?!?!”

“Fuck you Anarchy!?!”

A huge fist made of granite punches Anarchy in the chest.. He falls..

“How could you do this to me?!?!”

Tank picks Anarchy up by the hair and throws him across the room, he slams into a wall..

“She was my girl!?!?!” “my fucking girl!?! What the fuck is wrong with you!?!”

Tank grabs Anarchy by the shirt.. Holds him up to his snarling face!

“I fucking hate you! I fucking hate you with all that I am!!”

Tank drops Anarchy to the floor..

3 Months earlier..

“Your beautiful..”

“Please stop.. Don’t say that to me..”

“I wouldn’t say that If I didn’t mean it..”

“I know that.. but I’m not use to hearing it”

“Well get use to it, because I only speak the truth”

Greg cups her face in his hands.. Brings his lips closer to hers.. Their lips embrace..

“Why did you do that?”

“I had to.. I’m sorry..”

“Please don’t be sorry… You have nothing to be sorry about….”

2 months later..

“Greg, I think I’m losing her.. She’s so distant”

“Your not losing her, just give her some time, she’s been through a lot, the suicide and everything that’s going on it’s a lot to take in..”

“I know…”

Greg wraps his arms around Tank “it’ll be ok bro!”

One week later

“God damn, it’s amazing we end up together so much?”

“I guess fate is smiling upon us?”

“I guess so.. I have to tell you something, this is hard for me to say..”

“You know you can tell me anything?”

“I know..”

“Than tell me..” Greg smiles at her..

“I don’t know if I can..”

“Just try..”

She takes a deep breathe.. “I’m in love with you..”

Greg stops the car… Looks over at her, cups her face in his hands.. kisses her.. “God…. I love you too..”

“What does this mean?”

“I don’t know what this means..”

“This is all going to end horribly”

Back to the present..

Anarchy stands.. A look of horror on his face..

“Why did you do this to me!!” Tank kicks Anarchy to the ground!.. “WHY!” He screams.. “Answer me!!!!”

Greg picks himself back up…

“Wasn’t I a good friend Greg? Wasn’t I? Answer me!”

“I couldn’t help it…”

“What the fuck does that mean!?”

“You just don’t understand… Feelings got involved… You know me… You know me better than anyone knows me.. I’m use to getting what I want, and god forgive me, I wanted her.. I didn’t think this would happen, neither of us thought this was going to happen.. But it did, we fell in love with each other, it wasn’t one more than the other, if anyone is to blame, blame both of us, I’m sorry bro but I love her.. Love does funny things to people and please, please know I/we never meant to hurt you.. I would do anything for you man, anything all you have to do is ask and I would kill someone for you.. I never meant for this to happen..”

“God damn it! That’s no fucking excuse!!!”

“I know it’s not, Jesus, I know it’s not an excuse..”

Tank kicks Greg again..

“FIGHT BACK!” He yells!

“I can’t…”

“Why the fuck not?!?!”

“Because I deserve this, I deserve whatever you do to me…”

Tank looks at Greg in disgust.. “Get out of my face..”

“I know that look tank.. it’s the same look I felt for you about a year ago.. Remember?”

“What the fuck are you talking about?..”

“I came over here, and lo and fucking behold, she’s doing cocaine.. Do you know why she’s doing it, to feel fucking closer to you, how fucked up is that, when your girl has to do that kind of shit to feel closer to you and what do you do? Do you try and stop her? No you let her do it, You disgust me.. You have disgusted me the last fucking year.. You don’t deserve her.. You better fucking know what you have…”

Anarchy slams the door behind him..

The future (Not known how far in the future)

“How are you?”

“I’m good.. You?”

“could be better..”

“How is she?”

“She’s good too..”

“I’m glad to hear that..”

“I backed off for you”

“I know..”

“Do you know how hard that was to do?”

“I think I do..”

“It was the hardest decision I have ever had to make in my life.. I love her.. ”

“She is happy..”

“She better be.. She means the world to me..”

Anarchy holds out his hand.. Tank shakes it..

Anarchy walks away, he looks back at Tank.. 

“I love you man.. take care of her”

“I know and I will..”

A question 

Where am I
What's the time
Who am I
Should this thing fucking rhyme

A day
A night
A star
Look how it shines so bright

Follow me please
I don't know if I can
I want to know who I am
I am just a man

Strength
Honesty
Integrity
Courage

Show me the way
Don't take a wrong turn
I hope I don't fucking burn
That's all I have to say

War and Peace

We are at war and for the first time in my life I'm at a loss for words. That's why it's taken me so long to comment on this fucked up situation. 

John F. Kennedy once said:

"Let both sides, for the first time, formulate serious and precise proposals for the inspection and control of arms -- and bring the absolute power to destroy other nations under the absolute control of all nations."

Those words keep ringing in my mind, this war was not a unified decision by all nations, this war is all about revenge and oil. Now please keep in mind I am not Anti-war or Anti-Bush. I have the utmost respect for him because he is the President of the United States, but it really seems our agenda in this situation is fucked up. 

We have North Korea who can hit us with a nuclear weapon, but we don't seem to care about that, N. Korea is very defiant, we tell them to stop and they say fuck you, we are going to keep doing what we've been doing.

Is it our job to liberate Iraq? How about Cambodia, or South Africa? 4 out of 6 people die in Africa of Aids every day, if it was our job to liberate them why not liberate Africa with a bunch of condoms? Operation condom distribution it could be called. 

Many deaths will result from this war, many civilian deaths, many women and children will die.. Iraqi kids are innocent, just like our kids are. 

Give diplomacy and peace a fucking chance.

Free your mind 

Free your mind from thoughts of desperation, free your mind from thoughts of hate, greed, contempt and disrespect.. In my 27 years on this earth I have come to a few conclusions as to why we're here. Our reason for existence.. 

Allow me to discuss these few points with you..

1. God: There is a god, I believe this without a doubt, maybe it's because I have (or need) to believe this. When your young you really don't think much about God or if you look at the current younger generation, which in my opinion they do not believe in God or a higher power.. In youth you tend to be care free, or care less for that matter.. 

However, when your older and you go through some shit, people dying that you love, your family, friends etc. When you go through different situations, whatever they may be, You see things differently.. I see things differently than when I was younger and I truly believe that I will see my friends and family again when I die, because I believe that there is a heaven and a God. 

I also believe a soul has to learn or "evolve", so therefore I also believe in reincarnation. When you die you won't necessarily see the family that you knew but I believe you will see their soul and you will know exactly who they were in the life that you just left. 

2. Love: In my humble opinion, we need this. Love is something a human being needs so that he or she feels like going on or moving forward in this life. Love is something that I cannot express in words. We need people to love us so we don't feel completely fucking useless. 

Love is simple, human beings need to feel and express love. Think how pathetic you would feel if you had no love through your life. Nuff said. 

3. Free your mind: This is a little bit harder to explain and a point I have come to believe in fairly recently.. Think of "freeing your mind" as a sort of meditation.. Something to cleanse your soul, you can get through each day better if your relaxed and your mind isn't constantly thinking about stupid shit or situations that you have been through. How can you free your mind? 

Well that's something your going to have to figure out for yourself.

"Now that I understand this right, let me take it to the night. This revolution has just begun.."

Can you feel it? Something big is about to happen, don't ask me what but it will happen.. We're being mother fucking programmed, mother fucking brainwashed.. This Government, this world, is not right, where's that voice that's so desperately needed? 

I have always used the name Anarchy as my screen name/online name.. Even when I was a kid in school I gained the nickname Anarchy for the simple reason whenever I was around, stupid, weird shit would happen.. Chaotic things..

Maybe there is a reason for this? Or maybe I'm a blabbering idiot.. A few emails recently though have stated, "dear Greg, you have interesting things to say" blah blah blah we love the site blah blah blah.. You get the point.. 

Great things out of the comic book industry lately.. Go buy 30 days of night by Steve Niles right now. Your local comic shop might be out of all 3 issues, so you might have to go on Ebay to get it. Or go to your local comic shop and buy the graphic novel which reprints all 3 issues. Fucking fantastic.. Read a brief synopsis here if your interested. 

A few points of interest.. Read this, I have titled it "the return.."

Also read "Thoughts From Someone Who’s Not The Editor." (hit cancel if it prompts you for a password.)

Oh and the new name for our Ezine has switched from "Chaos Theory" to "Oblivion"..

A new day and new shit to contend with. I feel like my brain is going through a fucking mental breakdown because of all this shit I'm going through. 

I really hate dealing with people at work, I hate talking to them, I hate fixing their computer, I hate going to meetings and having to listen to them. Today we had a meeting on our new electronic timesheets we now have to fill out online. I fell asleep through the whole meeting, caught myself snoring twice. 

I just don't seem to care about anything anymore and this is the shit I do, maybe taking it a bit far because I really don't give a shit. Why do I do it? Maybe in the hopes I'll get fired and do something I enjoy and go on unemployment. That's pretty fucked up right?

Anyway nothing really new going on in the publishing front, I really have to get some of this new material / writings online. 

I'll probably do that this weekend. Gotta get through the rest of the week at work first though. 

Keep it real..

Jill

Jill goes to court tomorrow for her Cumberland County charges. She's got a lot of charges against her However, our system sucks. In the last 2 months I have found out how inmates are treated in correctional facilities, Hell including myself and I was just visiting her.

The past 2 months I have met some really idiotic cops, guards that have just been plain assholes. Specifically Atlantic County Jail (Minus the boot camp area which have been pretty cool), Atlantic County Jail Fucking Sux. I hope all you idiots that work there, your daughters or girlfriends or wives get arrested and you all have to deal with the crap you have put me through!

I hope the judge is able to see that Jill is a changed person and wants to better herself. She's a really good person with a good heart. Say a prayer for her ok?

Brain Tumors, Multiple Sclerosis, Mental Health and Comics.

Well the doctors are 100% sure it's not a brain tumor, on the other hand the lesions on my brain might still be MS or even Lymes Disease. They also think I have severe depression and have put me on Paxel which I'm really looking forward to for some odd reason or another.  

I'm going to work next on putting some previews of our upcoming comic book on the site, so in the next few days be on the lookout for that, there are some pretty cool images and photos that I have so far.

If you guys and Gals want to check out a pretty cool comic strip click this link http://www.comics.com/comics/getfuzzy/ it's called "Get Fuzzy" and it's pretty damn funny, the look of the cat alone cracks me up.

Car Accident and other things

I was involved in a car accident 2 weeks ago Monday. I don't know how close I came to death however, everyone is telling me I shouldn't of walked away from the accident and seeing my car I can understand how they can think that. 

My head hit and shattered my windshield and I had a nice bruise (well more than a bruise my face looked like a watermelon) on my forehead which turned into a blood clot that I had to have operated on 3 days after the accident.

In the process of all this crap, I had a catscan and an MRI and I might have Multiple Sclerosis. They don't know for sure and my blood work starts this week.. 

In life people tend to take things for granted, little things. Let me say this start living life and don't let life live you, Do things that you have always wanted to do, fuck what society wants you to do. Live life to its fullest, it's why were put on this earth.. 

I have more to say but for now this is it. I'll type up more later, maybe even update the site as I'm just starting to feel better from everything that has been going on.

Part 2 1:00 pm

Ok I'm back, I didn't intend to be back so quick but some things are really fucking bothering me. I will be updating the site ASAP, if nothing else this site helps me to keep a piece of mind, it keeps my sanity in check and trust me I have a shit load to update. Expect the comic section and the mp3 section to be up soon and the other literature parts of the site.

In other news you can read about Jill here

Comic

What a conversation me and my best friend had last night. it was about what we would really enjoy out of life, and let me ramble on here for a minute or two.

We both feel that what were currently doing in our lives, ie: our job and where were at personally and emotionally is completely and totally unfulfilling. We agreed that even if we were both the president of the united states we would still feel really fucking crappy about our lives. We want to do something we really enjoy doing, now say tomorrow I get offered a job making 25 thousand dollars a year compared to what I'm making now which is about 37k a year, say the offer was something I really enjoyed doing, say writing for a comic book company, for reading purposes we'll say I was offered a job writing the incredible hulk for marvel comics. I would jump on this opportunity. I really feel I have something to say to people, something good that needs to be said and the talent to do this, so why the fuck am I fixing computers, dear god why?!?!?!

My friend agreed with me that if he was offered a job for less money doing something he really enjoyed he would also quit his current job and do it! 

My question is this. Is this normal thinking why can't I be happy with what I'm doing? I look at most people at work and wonder why the fuck are you doing this! Don't you have a need to do something with your life more than fixing these fucking computers?

Now I am also working on my own comic book, self published, and I would really feel that once I get this done it's a goal in my life that's completed and maybe just maybe I can get a message out to people, even if they read what I write and think "god damn this guys nuts" or "god damn that was the greatest thing I have ever read", either way it would help my mindset that I finally have completed something in my life that I have always wanted to do.

I think I have emotional/mental issues that really need to be addressed sometime in the near future. :) (that's a smiley face for the people that our wondering. Look at it sideways).

Sniper!

What the hell is wrong with people and why the fuck can't we catch this fucking sniper! 

If I do something wrong or illegal the cops are on top of me like flies on shit! The shooting before last there was a cop giving someone a traffic ticket right across the street where the victim was shot, I mean come on people why can't we catch this guy!

Now If I was him or her (the sniper) which I'm not! I would have to be one sick fuck but besides that. I would want to make a name for myself, so what could I do to do to make a name for myself?. Well for starters start sniping people off (which he has been doing) and than I would go from State to State and continue my onslaught and after a few hits in each state, you stop! Now that's my thinking and mark my words this fucking idiot just might do that and I pray to God that the US has people that can think like this fucking guy and stop this before anymore innocent people are killed. 

Am I the only one that has this type of thinking? I read an article the other day where some congressmen think video games are behind this persons motivation and that's where he got this idea from, give me a fucking break! He's a fucking lunatic and doesn't need video games to help him out or give him new ideas or motivation!

"I am God!" You know what that meant? Nothing, it was a case of "I think I'll throw a tarot card into this scenario and make people think it means something" When it absolutely means fucking nothing, This person is a sick fuck and he/she is bound to come up with new ideas to keep the authorities guessing!

Greg/Anarchy


Some thoughts for the day!

Have you ever been so unfulfilled in life? Are you so fucking tired of everyone around you and how robotic they seem? Lately I'm really feeling like this and I don't know why, I'm not really depressed or suicidal or anything but it just seems like there's nothing new out there, nothing new being done and I don't have a way of getting over this feeling. 

I had this conversation with a few people at work yesterday and they look at me like I'm a retard. I just can't see how working on a computer (a square fucking box) can give anyone fulfillment in their life. I'm thinking about being a volunteer fire fighter in the hopes that helping others will give me that fulfillment I'm looking for. Oh, and than there's the reoccurring dream I keep having. 

There's a fire and man it's fucking burning a house like I have never seen and I'm there (as a firefighter) no one will go into the house and there's a child trapped inside upstairs, I race into the house make it upstairs (In the dream I'm seeing this unravel, looking at this happening like a spectator but I can tell it's me that ran into the house), I grab the child and go towards the window, the other fighters are able to get the ladder up to the window I go to carefully step onto the ladder and it somehow gets destroyed, I look down and they have the net ready, I jump with child in my arms, hit the net, the child is fine and makes it out alive. When I hit the net, I bounce hard onto the ground and end up breaking my neck. Thankfully I let go of the child once I hit the net and the child lands safely on the net. 

So what the fuck does that mean? Weird dream eh? 

Anyway this is the first time in months that I have updated this site. I'll be working the next couple of days to get it completely functional. Be advised only a few links work.

I have also lost my Assistant editor, she has fallen off the face of the earth, I have no idea where she is or even if she's ok.. If anyone wants to help with this site please email me. gregt@aupublishing.com

Talk Hard..
