Boil Water Notice Lifted

 The city of Jackson issued the following statement. 

The City of Jackson has officially received clearance from the Mississippi State Department of Health to lift the precautionary boil water notice on its 43K surface water connections served by the OB Curtis and JH Fewell Water Treatment Plants. With this confirmation, all boil water notices in the City of Jackson resulting from February’s winter storms have been lifted.

It used to be only Mexico where we were cautioned to "don't drink the water." Mexico has been replaced by Jackson.

Baby Chok's legacy, along with gun show extortion.

Continue boiling your water. At least three minutes. Then run it through a filter. Do not drink water out of a tap. Ever.

People buy steaks at Kroger when you can buy properly raised and far tastier and healthier beef at Home Place Pastures right here in MS?

My commute is nearly an hour. There is a Kroger near my home. Please tell me where I can get those nice steaks and get home and get them prepared before 8:30 PM at night?

Thanks!

Kroger has terrible meat. Try The Fresh Market. You can thank me later.

So, is the fallout from the great pipe-bustin' storm of 2021 all over now?

Is there anything left to fix?

Not talking about the work yet to do on upgrading and future-proofing the Jacktown water sewer system. I mean just getting the crappy old system back to working where everyone who had clean (relatively speaking) running (relatively speaking) water before the storm has it now.

Is that where we are?

Asking for myself...not a friend.

I moved from Madison to Austin two years ago. During the massive ice storm here, I lost water pressure for about 2 days. Everything else was fine.

Regardless, EVERYTHING was fixed within a week. Water, power, gas, etc. With the exception of a couple of apartment buildings that had broken pipes, no one was without water by the Monday after the storm.

Now if they would just do something about the homeless tent cities under the bridges...

Hold on to your mask, might get stanky said...

Now it's a matter of wait and see if Jacksonians go through "The Great Boo Boo Pandemic of 2021" as a real test of the water quality from the City that can't bill it's customers.

12:54, put them on a bunch of busses one-way to California in care of Nancy Pelosi. Surely at 80 years old she's about retire and will welcome the opportunity to lord over at least 435 homeless folks.

Two places where you should never drink the water; Jackson, Mississippi and Tijuana, Mexico, in that order!

When I'm grilling Kroger steaks and the wife shouts to ask me what I wanta drink and I tell her 'Just make mine water'...can one of you tell me which dilemma I am faced with - Jackson water or Kroger steaks?

PS: Kroger 51 in Madison (butcher's case) has the best steaks, of all types, in the Metro, hands down. Sure, you can pay five hundred percent at Flora Butcher, 300% for frozen steak at Remington Lott or 200% at Fresh Market, but none of those will beat a Kroger 51 steak. Don't be sucked in by the high-dollar, grass-fed, we pamper our cows bullshit.

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.

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.
