Vice-President-Elect Mike Pence will be coming to Mississippi for Thanksgiving. Governor Pence's son is a Marine pilot training at one of our bases. Let us hope he can survive the Navy mess.

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.

Will he make any public appearance, or is this a private family gathering. Since the only naval flight training in Mississippi is NAS Meridian, big honor for our military.
Navy mess is some of the best food I have ever had!
His son is a Marine.
2:31
Meridian is not the only one.
Will be so glad to see Mabus go. What an embarrassment.
Meridian is the only NAS in MS, and the Marines are part of the Navy so that's why they train there. Agree that it'll be good to see Mabus go. Hope he stays in D.C. or anywhere but MS.
@3:54 please elaborate
The VP Elect should feel right at home.
Given all of dem conflicts on interest, do you think he will advise our master to sell us all off.
@4:42
Mabus=Secretary of the Navy=please go away
he needs a safe space from the cast of hamilton
If you want Pence to have a private visit, why tell anybody he's coming? Why give hints about where he will be?
4:42 and 6:03 apparently have no friends or family in positions in the Marine Corps or Navy to know anything about Mabus' tenure as Secretary or what he did for the Navy.
Mabus has been an excellent Secretary of the Navy. Morale in the Navy and the Corps is high.
Our Navy Seals and Marines have obviously contributed greatly under his leadership and admire his care of and concern for them.
The Navy and Marine Corps also met recruitment goals and retention during Mabus' tenure and he made sure they were 100% staffed ( source: Congressional testimony).
He is not interested in staying in politics but will be working in the private sector ( where he is recognized for his talents) because unlike some politicians, he lost wealth while in public service. That happens when you are ethical and patriotic.
He is one of only 6 politicians from both parties in the State who didn't enrich themselves and their friends while in office, who could work across the aisle for the best interests of the State, who improved the State while in office, and who put the State first . Of those 6, he was one of two, who, when called to national service, put the Nation first. And, he, like the other Mississippian stood up to power to do the right thing despite it adversely affecting their national position in their respective parties.
Ray Mabus and Gil Carmichael are two of the smartest and most honorable men I've ever been privileged to know.
We used to have more like them until people like the two of you who will ignorantly trash anyone and their family with your partisan " rage" politics that have discouraged public service! And, your party has helped you do that because they want people who will tow the party line no matter how stupid the policy position!
I would not blame him if he never came back.
Nice try at some propaganda. Mabus is currently in the process of ruining the Marine Corps. He can't get out too soon.
One of only six. Bullsh#t. Plenty of politicians who didn't enrich themselves es. Plenty who have, no doubt. But your green eyeshades of Mabus adoring can't really believe all the crap you put in this comment.
I will agree Mabus wasn't the worse public official we have had -even in modern history. Far better and more honest than Musgrove for example. But his promotion of his bosses social agenda to the detriment of the defenose of our country has not been his finest hour - or year (s).
KF back your comment up with specifics.
My loyalty is to The Corps first not to any of the damned political parties or any individual including Ray Mabus . My sources have been and are damned reliable and are in positions to actually know how The Corps is doing.
If you are talking about the downsizing of the Corps, that has little to do with the Sec of the Navy and a lot to do with the Secretary of Defense, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, The Commander in Chief, and the budget. It also has more than a little to do with the larger role being played in current strategy by Navy Seals and our fleet.
Do you expect a Sec. of the Navy to do more than make tough decisions that have to be based on strategic directives and available resources?
Give me a specific instance where you can say that Mabus didn't respond given the parameters of his authority.
Your scuttlebutt is really,really bad on this one.
10:16 AM
You are right about Mabus being far better and "more honest" than some other politicians. Other examples besides Musgrove, bring to mind Haley Barbour, Tate Reeves and Bennie Thompson.
10:31 You seem in the know and I'll go with your assessment.
Personally I don't appreciate the mean spirited types trying to tear down a hard working, public spirited Mississippian, Ray Mabus, just because he's not a card carrying member of Trump's crowd. He should be applauded regardless of party because he is our fellow Mississippian who has reached a high national office. We have too little of that kind of recognition to cut him down for reaching high on the ladder.
..."He should be applauded regardless of party because he is our fellow Mississippian who has reached a high national office."
That's a special kind of logic.
A large number of readers here simply hate. There is no legitimate discussion of facts.
They hate......hate gay people and their freedom.
They still hate black people.
They hate government because government made black people and gay people free.
These people are not rational humans. They are not here to debate facts. Mabus could have cured cancer and he would still be hated by this wretched, miserable lot of people whose lives must be unbearable.
So stop asking legit questions from these type people (and if you are not one....then don't be offended) and move on with life.
I'm not offended 3:55 pm
I understand that you cannot reason with an irrational person.
But, too many otherwise good people have been duped by propaganda and led to believe that the end justifies the means.
I am still willing to die for our country and will not be one of the "good Germans" who marches in lock step to any political party or bows to bullies!
Welcome to Mississippi, Vice President Elect Pence. We are happy that you and your family will be spending Thanksgiving at the Naval Air Station in Meridian with your son, who is a Marine. Please thank him for his service for us. We hope you and your family enjoy your holiday in our state and will come back again, soon.
"You are right about Mabus being far better and "more honest" than some other politicians. "
Let us know what his ex-wife has to say about that....
11:37 pm She is someone I've knew before she married for the second time to Ray. Their marital conflict didn't change my opinion of either.
I was surprised the marriage lasted as long as it did.
I credit Ray with the effort to try to make the marriage work.
You don't know what you don't know.
