Kiss buying the Wall Street Journal at a newsstand goodbye. For many years its been sold at local bookstores such as Books A Million and at McDade's. Can't hardly find it now thanks to the Clarion-Ledger. See, the local newspaper took over retail distribution of the WSJ. Now delivery is sporadic. Hasn't been delivered two weekends in a row and BAM said they no longer carry it thanks to the CL. Good job knuckleheads. Its bad enough you turn out a crappy product. Now you take steps to make sure we can't purchase the only decent newspaper in town. Looks like I'll be subscribing. Is there nothing you don't screw up?

Trollfest '09
Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.
Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).
Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.
Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".
In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.
In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.
Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.
Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!
This is definitely a Beaver production.

Trollfest '07
Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.
There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.

Or you could just get it at Lemuria. We open at 8 AM Monday through Saturday, 10:30 AM on Sundays.
Went by there. Thanks. They had one left. What she said was the CL person underbid the person who has done it for years and has the NYT. Turns out they are using a strict inventory control. If they sold 3 on tuesday last week they deliver 2 or 3 and that's it. BAM doesn't even get it anymore and I know for a fact they sold several every day.
The good news is that, if you're a subscriber, it's now being delivered in the morning instead of through the mail.
How does an 'author remove' a comment? Impossible.
Pee Ess: My Clarion subscription delivery has, for the first time ever, been sporadic the last two weeks.
My carrier is an A-A woman. She is dead solid perfect and reliable every delivery day. I'm not disputing any of y'all only sharing that they have some independent contractors who kick big black mama booty.
I tip her $$big time$$ to reinforce the free market performance based (non-Obama) system and in my phone conversations with this young old-school gal I know she gets it but she can't say it.
@ 5:32 pm... Can you translate into english ???
If you need a translation for 5:32 you must be a Soetero Donkey.
CL is a joke. The capital of Mississippi and the largest newspaper is an embarrassment for our state.

Get a sub to the WSJ! You won't regret it. I look forward to reading it.

KF, you need to let WSJ know. Paper availability ties straight into their marketing. If local POS is trying to kill the competition, then you tell the better newspaper what's going on.

Kristie Sells, Vice President Customer Experience, k.sells@wsj.com
I've been a daily subscriber to WSJ for several years and my delivery has always been sporadic. Sometimes days at a time without a paper. I called, e-mailed, screamed, pleaded, etc. and finally in the last few months it has been regularly available in my driveway when I get up in the morning. Then they went with the C-L, and all the sudden, my C-L delivery, which I could always count on, has been sporadic. And since my WSJ is now in the same plastic bag as C-L, that means my WSJ is back to being sporadic. Oh well, I'm done screaming and pleading.
