WM will continue picking up trash, Richard's Disposal will bill Jackson for $50K to $100K for "start up costs", but won't get paid because they have no authorized contract, RD will then sue the brat mayor, ...endless hissy tantrums.

The hearing will be interesting. No doubt KF will cover it in person.

9:40 : Nope. This will all go away real quite now that 90 % of Jackson KNOWS this was a pocket greasing. Neither Richards nor the Mayor wanna be caught and this is all theater. And damn near everyone is in on it.

I wonder when Dickinson plans on actually hearing argument on the substantive issues in the case. He sure is taking a leisurely approach to this case. I wonder if he is aware that the current contract ends this week.

I can't help but wonder if the reason Lumumba does NOT want Virgi Lindsay, Bryan Grizzel, and Angelique Lee to be dismissed from Lumumba's lawsuit against the City Council is because Lumumba wants those three Council members to be present in any meetings the Council has about the lawsuit so that one (or more) of those three Council members can then SECRETLY report to Lumumba about what is being discussed in the Council about the lawsuit.

This scam runs long and deep.

Garbage Be Piling Up said...

Y'all had better stock up on large heavy-duty garbage bags, and maybe some mouse/rat traps. If y'all are going to toss those bags over Chowke's security gate remember he has palace guards.

Hopefully what KF reports Wednesday night will be positive news.

Live in Belhaven. While working in yard this weekend randomly asked almost everyone who walked by if they wanted the proposed 96-gallon can. Spoke to 23 people. 17 said No, 2 didn't know anything about the imbroglio, 1 said yes, 1 said they'd rather not but could live with it, 2 were students not impacted. Of the 17 who said No, 15 said they would definitely not vote for Virgi next time.

WAPT is reporting that Richard's has trucks in Jackson now. Seems they are ready to roll with the contract they got. Looks like Mayor will win this one.

Kenneth Stokes' radio program StokesRadio (see earlier story) was VERY interesting . Listen to it long enough to hear what he says about his meeting with the U.S. Attorney General's people (a meeting which probably included the FBI). Not sure whether Stokes' conversation with the feds directly affects the garbage contract issue or not, but it seems to me that it may.

I still want to see the equipment and 40 employees that Waste Disposal Services Inc. claims to have. Sham company that is exploiting minority business status.

Boo Boo in Jackistan said...

After a few days I should be able to see the garbage piled up in N.E. Jackson from my casa in Reunion. Hopefully the wind won't be from the south.

Throw your trash in Chokwe's yard said...

"Seems they are ready to roll with the contract they got."

What contract? There is no contract. And there is also no way they are ready to start picking up trash city-wide next week. There may be some trucks here, but what about maintenance facilities, employees, etc. Where are they going to take the trash? To the Waste Management owned dumps? This is going to be a disaster of epic proportions.

@3:39 PM Au contrair, His Honor the baby mayor was on the 5 o'clock news tonight and he insisted that there would be no interruption in service, right? Right? Right?

12:58, are you sure they actually run? When I was at State, we took old garbage trucks, painted them white with a big W on the side, and made a fortune selling them to Ole Miss students as Winnebagos.

Richard's has 17 trucks here. How is that enough for the city?

The comments (some funny, some serious) with the Jackson Jambalaya story from March 2 (story title: Stokes to Mayor: "Quit Smokin' That Dope") are REALLY interesting. Here's the direct link to the story & comments: https://kingfish1935.blogspot.com/2022/03/stokes-to-mayor-quit-smokin-that-dope.html?m=1

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.

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.
