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.
If you get tired come relax at the Fox News Tent. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag.

This is the biggest vote of all time for Jackson. If Junior go in run for your life..
Voting against Precious Martin's candidate. If everyone who has been stiffed by Precious votes for Yarber, Yarber should win in a landslide.
tony did a good job not getting pegged as the white mans republican candidate. it would be hard to do so considering where he is from and his past but still always good to distance yourself from that if you are a candidate running in jackson.
he stayed out of ne jackson for the most part and didnt get any endorsements from whitey. that being said it doesnt matter what he does today. lefleur east area is too quiet today. there should be signs everywhere saying to go vote. im worried precincts 32-35 are gonna be very low turnout.
If Yarber wins Detroit has to go back home.
If chokeweed, jr wins today my house will go on the market and I will sell it for what I can and leave this sewer behind. I was born here and am in my mid 60's and find it unbelievable how the current powers to be have destroyed everything that can be destroyed. Now, a retard that advocates a separatist "nation" of blacks only will probably win? You must be kidding? These clowns make the KKK look like choir boys. disgusting.......
Notice how Donner hasn't been even remotely as vile and hateful dogging Precious @ Free the Lumumba over his behind the scenes PAC role orchestrating the Yarber attack ads as she was in her odious attacks on Wilson Carrol some years back.
Looking forward to my property values increasing this afternoon around 8:30 p.m. or so. If Yarber wins it will only delay it from happening. I like Yarber and hope he wins. Only way it does not spiral into a bowl of sewage!!!
11:15 you are correct but Tony will but you a little time.A couple of years tops.
@ 11:15 You are so right...I am in the Real Estate Field and have seen far too many people wanting to sell their home due to the Political climate of Jackson. Either way the outcome of today will spell big business for my profession...Tony wins - People will be moving in...Choke Me wins....they will move out. WIN WIN!!!!! I personally hope they move in....
NICKNAR
I would rather have Octavian win then that ghetto fabulous Yarber, but seeing how Jackson is full of ghetto folks it's only fitting that they have a ghetto mayor, imagine that image as the mayor if the capital city??? Our capital city is already a laughing stalk why elect someone like Yarbor, at least jr looks the part and speaks the part. But the thugs will vote for ghetto duck lips yarber cause that is all I am hearing . team duck lips. I say we move the capital city to one with a respectful mayor.
For God's sake, don't tell 11:15 that Chokwe's dad did win last time.
He sounds like a nice kid and I'm told he is by people who know him. Either him or Yarber will be fine.
Unfortunately, although crude, 12:24 is very close to the truth.
This election is very much a "North side versus South side" matchup. Or a "haves versus have-nots" if you will.
Yarber is way too country or ghetto to be the face of this city.
Yes, someone backed by Detroit who has the likes of Kwayme Kenyatta and orange-haired ladies should be the face of Jackson. I take that back. At least Kenyatta bought a house here. Omari still lives in Ridgeland.
No one going to mention Repubs backing Yarber? It's a shame and pity how easy people sell out to the lowest of all
Several of 'white man's candidate' and 'repubs backing Yarber'. Question: Why would 'whitey' give a rat's ass which is elected. What's to be gained 'from a white perspective', assuming there is such a thing, by electing one over the other? As far as Jackson's ultimate fate, does it really matter which is elected? Blacks won't be any better off by electing Mumbuloo and whites won't be any better off by electing Yarber and vice versa, topsy turvy. Makes no nevermind anywho.
300 votes cast so far at Willie Morris library as of 5 pm. Two weeks ago this precinct tallied 791 votes. Lots of catching up to do in two hours. Pitiful turnout unless everyone votes after work.
Question, if yall don't mind. Just talked to someone who had voted this afternoon. they didn't vote on the electronic machines. They voted old way--darken in the circle next to the candidate then push the card into the reader.
any one else hearing about this? She said there were over 200 on the book who had voted where she votes.
300 votes cast so far at Willie Morris library as of 5 pm.
You are wrong. You only counted one book or one machine. 584 @ 4:40 PM. BTW, two weeks ago it was 780.
4:00 sounds nearly identical to idiot David L. Archie.
I voted at Boyd and that's how we voted.
hey 5:16, Hinds (and that means Jackson too) got new voting machines about a year ago. Back to paper. another one of the great grahams great ideas. $2.5 million shot to hell.
NE Jackson is like kryptonite to these candidates.
I voted at Spann and that's how it worked there, too.
Yarber may be the first to prove the hypothesis @ 6:02 PM wrong. One thing is certain, win or lose, cHuckster Jr. will LOSE Ward 1, Belhaven and most of Fondren.
The votes are coming a
In and just like I predicted m the ghetto folks want a ghetto mayor, they can have this crap hole of a town. It's time for decent citizens to move out. Cause look at what is now the face of the Captial city,
"Pitiful turnout unless everyone votes after work."
Octavian's supporters had jobs? Who knew?
And - paper ballots allowing auditing, unlike computerized ballots where we have no way of verifying if a ballot as cast was what was actually recorded. I think paper ballows, although slower to count, are better to detect fraud.
