Please Welcome Gerald Long

As I've noted in a few recent updates ( here  and  here  ), our little Salt City Sinner family is slowly but surely expanding. To that end, I would like to welcome a new guest poster / author, Mr. Gerald Long of Crazypoliticos, which is incidentally a great blog that is a fun and zesty read.

Gerald is a pleasant-natured, intelligent fellow whom it isn't wise to piss off or wander into the cross-hairs of, because he is also quite an astute and natural dirt-digger.

Gerald is also a long-time patron and supporter of the One World Cafe, which has been experiencing financial problems of late, and in fact has been talking to me for a month or longer about ways in which #OccupySLC or other local groups could support One World. He also was basically one of the first five people to get the memo about One World temporarily closing, although ViewFinder was the first one to post about it here.

The esteemed Mr. Long will (from what I gather) still maintain his blog at Crazypoliticos, so keep that site in your RSS feed, and he will now guest post (or occasionally be anarcho-syndicated) here.

Please welcome Gerald and make him feel at home!

Apparently, Liberals Are The Illuminati

posted 10/5/2012 by the Salt City Sinner Greetings, sheeple, from my stronghold high atop the Wells Fargo Building in downtown Salt City, where I type this before a massive, glowing bank of monitors that display the ongoing progress of my 23-point plan for complete social control. Whether you want to demonize me as a "liberal," or prefer the Glenn Beck update "progressive," we all know the truth, and it's time to pull the curtain aside: like all left-leaning persons, I am actually a member of the Illuminati. How else to explain how much power my side of the aisle wields in U.S. American politics? According to conservatives, liberals/the Illuminati control the media * , science * , academia in general * , public schools * , public radio * , pretty much anything "public," the courts * , and Hollywood * . Hell, we pretty much control everything except for scrappy, underdog operations like WND and Fox News, or quiet, marginalized voices like

The Garden Is Dead, Long Live The Garden

posted on 8/30/2015 by the Salt City Sinner  The last two times that I wrote about gardening, the tone was uncharacteristically less “playful whimsy” than “agonized demon howl.” This is with good reason. The cockroach-hearted fauxhemian Whole Foods crowd at Wasatch Community Gardens, you see, did a terrible thing to me and many other people – they decided that agreements are for suckers and that what the world really needs is another blighted patch of asphalt rather than a large and vibrant community garden, and so they killed my garden (and the gardens of many others) dead, dead, dead. Forgive my bitterness: there is something about loving a patch of actual soil, about nurturing life from tiny green shoots to a luxurious canopy of flowers and vegetables that brings out a protective streak in a human being, and also a ferocious loyalty. The destruction of Sugar House Community Garden did not, however, end my gardening career – heavens, no! Instead, I and a handful of

Cult Books: One Good, One Terrible

  I’ve finished writing a new novel (stay tuned for details) in which the massacre at Jonestown in November 1978 plays a pivotal role. Both to research it and because the phenomenon interests me, I’ve read more than a few books on cults and cultic ideology over the last year.
