John is right, the plan is nuts. In Portland, arguably the US's most bike-friendly city (TM), cars park in the usual curbside spot and cars defer to bikes in the center lanes of designated streets. Busier urban thoroughfares run alternate one-way streets to better accommodate parking, bike lanes and auto traffic. Parking is alleviated in part with the private garages every few blocks, one chain of which has a deal with the city to offer a discounted rate for the first few hours. See, SLC, there are alternatives to driving people like John Saltas even crazier than they already are. (love ya, salty!)
Hi Commonsense! Shouldn't be too difficult to figure out. I'm not making this up, either! If you can spell things with the letters of words that match what you think that person is doing, then it MUST mean the related anagram also applies to that person! It's not my logic, actually. I'm just borrowing from Mr. Beck. Well, not *completely* borrowing, because at least my anagram is spelt correctums.

Here's an anagram for Glenn Beck!
F allacies!
U mbrage of hyperbole
C elery nuggets of "truth"
K ooky connecting of dots to pretend they have "greater meaning"
W osrt excuse for news, ever!
I diot box has a new meaning
T he increased ratings, and thereby revenue, when you irresponsibly get
a bunch of other dummies buying into your inane rhetoric!
It's really true that people will believe what they want to believe. You know, I recently told an old acquaintance of mine a very personal story about how my partner is left holding the bill for nearly a thousand unexpected dollars after receiving doctor-recommended in-network tests (such as a colonoscopy - his insurance almost didn't pay for that one at all because he'd had one before - they tried to say it was a 'pre-existing condition.') Then, I told him that the World Health Organization found that the United States ranks 37th in its performance, 72nd in overall level of health (and even cited my sources). But do you know what he said? That the US health care system isn't broken, and we have the best medical care in the world. He also said - without being willing or able to cite any statistics or sources - that "we'll all be sorry when we find out the real high cost of free health care." ??? The point I'm trying to make is... people who go into an argument with their minds made up are rarely going to change their way of thinking. Having been a friend for over a decade and a former employee, I know a bit about John Saltas. He's a really good person who has spent his adulthood trying to make sure the "other side" of the story gets told in Utah, however inconvenient that might be for the opposing side or those who can't wrap their head around hearing about its faults. But, knowing this, John will still try to engage in meaningful dialog with a person who is sticking their fingers in their ears and singing "LALALALALA" at the top of their lungs. I'm not going to point any fingers, but it might be a certain someone who has been posting comments about this story accusing the City Weekly employee, Derek, of lying, and John Saltas of being whatever bad thing he could think of. Couldn't just be Derek is telling the truth, and John honestly wants to help him? Nah. The truth has got to be something far more insidious... because the alternative would force a very tricky possibility into a very unwilling mind.

Re: “I Shop. Therefore, I Am”
Now you can get paid when we duck out to go shopping and John will not just know about it, but be cool with it. This is about fifteen years in the making. I'm hopping on this train as soon as I can make it to town. Love you lots CAZ!
