Jackson to become gun free zone

Mike Bloomberg, just in time for the primaries, has bought Jackson.

For 35 dollars and 11 cents, to be paid over 150 years.

He overpaid, but, it's well worth the pandering.

Sorry, Mike. No refunds, no returns.

500 million fed grant to fix all Jackson roads. Nothing could be bigger.

The Mayor is going to the Paris Air Show !!

Ooh! A guessing game until 5PM! Here's my choices
1) Zoo reopens
2) Zoo shuts down
3) Suing someone else related to water debacle
4) Declaring Jackson a sanctuary city
5) Another Farish Street Rejuvination project

I'm guessing a new task force will be formed to study something with his sister as Chairperson, Enoch Sanders as Vice Chairman & The Judge waiting to hand out blessings (as usual of course).

It's all about grabbing prime time in front of the camera.

zoo opening date

Jackson is pulling out of Mississippi and will be the capital of Kush. Yes, the previous statement is tongue in cheek. But the sad fact remains this statement is the desire of Baby Chok.

Jacktown no longer to be named after Andrew....but now Jesse.

Siemens settled out of court

All the potholes will be fixed and all streets will be paved by the end of February.

1) zoo (probably)
2) airport
3) Chokwe named Bernie Sanders' running mate

I'm guessing #1

Pretty ballsy to hold the presser at 5:00pm and ask the tv stations to air it live during their news shows. It better be huge or they'll never show up again.

Maybe it will be like the big Pearl announcement a couple weeks ago. New coach time for one of the schools.

Big remodeling of the Burger King on High St. in the works.

He knows people who actually have jobs will be traveling home and won't watch it.

All his supporters will be in front of their television screens.

Guessing it's more stupidity.

If it was truly big, it would have leaked by now.

I had a dream about this. The mayor is going to legalize marijuana and use the tax revenue for infrastructure.

Jackson is merging with Bolton.

Anonymous said...

I amend my prediction....no more marijuana arrests and an agreement with Jody Owens not to prosecute petty drug crimes.

Or Jackson is announcing a new level of "sanctuary city" in coordination with the county.

Judge Green sentenced a Jackson resident to 10, you read it right, 10 whole years for capitol murder! A record

What would be cool is if nobody shows.

Jackson and Pelahatchie are gonna merge.

WJTV just announced the City settled with Siemens.

Wow. This is HUGE! (/sarcasm)

Anonymous said...

They're gonna give Bennie credit for "One Lake" and he is finally going to support it and it will become reality. Many dirt haulers in Bolton will be enriched.

Sarcasm Be Us said...

1. Baby Chok is going to be Bloomies running mate.
2. Baby Chok is "coming out."
3. The Pearl River has been flooding.
4. Baby Chok is moving to Cuba to be tourism minister.
5. Baby Chok is moving to N. Korea to be #2.
6. Jackson is receiving $75,000,000 from a deceased Nigerian Prince, believed to be a distant cousin of Baby Chok.

As little as he's accomplished...it won't have to be much.

Anonymous said...

It will have to be much, much bigger than being Zoo related for such a blatantly pretentious memo like that to go out...

Anonymous said...

1. Free water for N.E. Jackson (the rest of the city has been getting it free for years).
2. Crechales decided to stay on Hwy 80 and be an anchor restaurant.
3. COJ has been buying lotto tickets and WON!

Baby Chok has ordered the zoo animals to be released as a form of urban renewal. This will also save on the enormous food bills.

Announcing Jackson's Going Out of Business Sale!

Up to 90% off on dilapidated homes, firearms, and depressing memories of when McDowell Road didn't look like Chernobyl!

Joel B. Has been appointed as head of narcotics.

After a million+ dollar investment in a consulting firm, we are changing the colors on the police cruises to something more appealing.

Why is this agreement with Siemens considered huge news? Is Jackson so bad that this is something to brag about on the 5pm news?

Go Baby Chok said...

$89,000,000 is huge. Good for Baby Chok. Hopefully the money will be put to good and efficient use.

Well that was boring. 90 million settlement with Siemens. Wonder how it will be wasted.

So is this going to replace meters and/or billing system? (and/or training of water dept employees) I mean we still have the problem to correct, right? It's not like it's just a bucket of free money to use on something else.

Lol at all the Zoo comments. If only y’all knew what’s REALLY happening at the Zoo nowadays!!! There’s a reason they’re not allowing Media/Cameras/Visitors inside.

You have any inside information? Inquiring minds want to know.

I can't get inside but from outside it sounds like high stakes animal fights.

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.
