Really Really Free Market 7.15.12

Really Really Free Market: Bring what you don't need, take what you do.

A new black velvet jacket, someone no longer needed, but this lovely young tourist was thrilled to have a jacket to wear on the plane ride home!


With so much consumption all around us, there must be piles of clothing, books, housewares and other goods that we no longer need- RECYCLE through the Really Really Free Market!  Give to those who DO need, and take what YOU need.
Do you have a skill that you can share with others?  Here one of the local participants gifts his talent of making balloon animals.  This child was so patient.  I watched as his eyes lit up watching as his special creation was forming before his very eyes, moments of sheer joy flooded his face- I almost cried watching this beautiful moment.
















Liberty Park was a great place for Really Really Free Market.  Two participants rode bikes around the park telling the other park goers where they could find FREE items, and within moments there was a crowd.  As they gathered and inspected the items available for the taking many took the time to ask why and how, some even signing up to participate in future RRFMs.
As the hours passed much of what was brought had found new homes.  That which did not was packed up for the next Really Really Free Market - Look for it again soon, coming to a location near you!  AND START GATHERING YOUR EXCESS- You know you don't need all that "stuff", give it to those who DO.

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.
