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.

I wish him well. I do not agree with him. But I hope he gets the rest he needs.
As a citizen of Jackson I can say only the media will miss him. He's a entertaining foolish race baiting loser.
Is he taking a break from his paycheck for three to six months?
I do not wish him any I’ll will; but, I do know the City of Jackson and Hinds County would be much better off without him. He is constantly stirring the pot to cause problems. He does absolutely nothing to make things better for the area.
He just realized the public was taking notes and racial discrimination as public policy, written or stated, by an elected official is illegal.
So he can’t call in to participate in council meetings to represent his ward? I remember Margaret Barrett Simone doing so for years. If he can’t or won’t represent his ward in any capacity, maybe he should quit and focus on his health while a new council member can focus on the citizens in Ward 3.
The rumor is that he will be doing speech writing for the fellow race-baiting "Reverends" Jackson and Sharpton.
Shocking...he seems like the picture of health to me.
It would be a sad and pathetic life to be as racist as so many of the people who post comments on JJ.
I bet that paycheck is not gonna take 3-6 months break
5:46, you mean like Stokes has done foe his entire career? There is nothing more life-changing than a health scare, that said, I sincerely hope he gets healthy, finds some joy in life and puts his divisive attitude behind.
5:46PM, Imagine how Stokes feels. He has to be the biggest racist in the state. Think how sad and pathetic his life must be.
Maybe Karma caught up with him.
It must be a sad and pathetic life to be an internet troll like a few who post on JJ.
@5:46
No more racist than the charlatan himself, "Big Stroke"
It would be a sad and pathetic life to be as racist as Kenneth Stokes.
Get well soon Kenny Baby. Those who elected you expect you to keep that nose to the grindstone. Others in bad health keep on kicking. Be a man and don't wimp out.
Stokes is so fat that if he broke his leg, gravy would pour out.
F that guy. He’s a racist scum bag.
I live in the 3rd Ward, how do I recall this guy? Now's the time, more than ever, to have sensible leaders in City Hall, we don't need an absentee "representative."
I wonder how the judge, Lorita is doing? Does she like Kennuff take the bus when she goes to the courthouse? Is she still allowed to wear her hat? How did these two ever get into public disservice? They don’t do ANY positive service.
Actually, she has been a pretty decent judge.
Stokes revealed he has Bell's Palsy, a nerve condition that is temporarily paralyzing his facial muscles.
I guess his face IS gonna stick that way.
10:44, but will it paralyze his mouth??
Prayers for the Councilman's health and for all of your mean hearts.
she is doing a good job on the bench
What about Lorita's brother that killed a guy in Yazoo County and staged it to look like a atv accident on a bridge on Wildwood Rd???? Whatever happened with that??
Bell’s palsy is a condition in which the muscles on one side of your face become weak or paralyzed. It affects only one side of the face at a time, causing it to droop or become stiff on that side.
It’s caused by some kind of trauma to the seventh cranial nerve. This is also called the “facial nerve.” Bell’s palsy can happen to anyone. But it seems to occur more often in people who have diabetes or are recovering from viral infections like HSV I.
Most of the time, symptoms are only temporary. He needs to get his Diabetes under control and lose some of that bear fat. He'll live and needs to stay at work.
I was told that Reggie Marion from WLBT is going to sit in for him. That’s his doppelgänger
No radio show? Where am I going to get my spiritual guidance, pray tell?
Maybe the "Reverends" Sharpton and Jackson will fill in for him.
Councilperson Kenneth Stokes represents Ward 3 well. Ward 3 has many people that live far below a living wage and have no means available to move or upgrade their living conditions. The majority of Ward 3 are law-abiding citizens of the city. So, I am thankful that Councilperson Stokes is willing to speak up for his constituents. I pray that he gets well soon and returns to his active representation of Ward 3.
What will the voters in his ward do without the signs: Happy Halloween from Kenneth Stokes; Happy Thanksgiving from Kenneth Stokes; Merry Kwanzaa from Kenneth Stokes. Big Swoll, don't you know your people live for these messages from you?
His ward didn't improve with him working full time, it can't get any worse with him out for a few months.
WHOTHAHELLCARES
Vote Stokes 2021
Other than Kennuf bilking the bus company out of $6000, he has been highly entertaining. And every once in a while he has been right.
Quick, somebody tell him don’t go to St D!!!! ( that’s where he said the first three name mayor was murrered)
"Ward 3 has many people that live far below a living wage and have no means available to move or upgrade their living conditions."
No means available? What about getting an education (financial assistance is available) and a good job, from which they could earn the means? Same as anyone else.
Or did you mean no free handout available?
@9/30 1:44pm
Reggi and Kenny don't play on the same side of the fence. The politics could get really funny with Reggi sitting in.
Even in the movie, Professor Klump disappeared for awhile. So, a break from 'Fat Albert' will be a breath of fresh air. Don't be surprised if there's a 'tummy tuck' in the plans.
Honorable you got to be kidding, agitator, tried to get JPD officers killed then tries to be nice.....................Stokes the Joke!
