Jackson Jambalaya

right next door to that stinking NO TELL MOTEL full of junkies and troublemakers . maybe it will clean the place up.

Baby Chowke can market it as a tourist attraction, right?

That's a lot of raw boo boo.

No money to fix these leaks because Jackistan is spending a king's ransom on law suits/lawyers, right?

well, at least for the next 5 days or so, we can claim its a pretty water feature!! Like a fountain

There used to be a Red Lobster right there.

Is there any constructive purpose behind getting on here and posting every time a line breaks (but only if it’s in Jackson)?

Seriously, I’m wondering on what planet could this possibly be helpful to anyone?

@11:04
I just moved to Flowood from Pearl after living there for the last 3 years. We had about 2 breaks a year in the neighborhoods between Pearson and Airport Road. The breaks are always fixed within 48 hours and the ground closed up and sod is laid within 72 hours. Rain or shine, hot or cold, weekends or holidays. They would always get it done. And I noticed that it was the same group of City of Pearl workers neck-deep in muck, busting their asses for the residents of the city. A totally different culture than the City of Jackson.

Dr. Charles will fix it. Oops…..not any more. What shall we do?

@1104, actually, no. And FYI, KF doesn't post on this site every time a waterline breaks in Jackson. If ge did, there would often times be multiple posts a day.

It appears to this reader that he only posts these pictures when they are the spectacular high pressure fountains created, generally in a populated business area. And, along his beaten track.

Happy now?

@11:04 AM - We get our jollies irritating you, snowflake. Maybe it's because this is the only news outlet that keeps us informed.

KF, stay the course.

Constructive purpose to remind Jacksonians and Jackson voters about the rank incompetence of the Lumumba administration.

You're welcome.

Nobody is forcing you to visit this site or reply

Yes, the purpose is to get involved and active in your local communities and politics before it is too late and you begin seeing these issues or worse in your community (and Kingfish’s grandchildren will be posting it)

This is just the reenactment of the 1979 Easter Flood, promised by the Mayor.

when did the deference of maintenance start? duct tape can only hold for so many years then this happens.

i live in clinton work in jackson. we had a main break in clinton. fixed in a few days. made a traffic problem but people were thankful work was being done.

I call this accountability.

Meanwhile Lord Mayor himself is only worried about his garbage contract. It’s pathetic really. Good thing he is in government as he could never earn a paycheck for himself if he had too.

Water line break on neighbor's property but on utility side of meter. Bear Creek drove back to their yard after completing the repair less than 3 hours after my neighbor called them to report the problem. They also bill for services and collect remittances like clockwork each and every month.

It's only the PERCEPTION of a broken water main, right?

“KF, stay the course.”
Lolololololol.

It’s waste management’s fault

Meanwhile the Emperor wants to waste ARPA dollars on Farish Street, $700,000 for Rukia's crime prevention skim, er, siphon, and other non-infrastructure related spends. THEN he and his cult got pushed out of shape when the Legislature didn't bestow greater than a 1:1 match ratio for Jackson infrastructure.

Been eating at Red Lobster (way back after college football games) for decades and don't remember one every being there.

I always wondered what the hell ISH is supposed to mean, though.

He's trying not to have to use the same buddies as project managers for a fifth time. There are only 40 men (aka buds) on the list and most have been appointed ($5000 per month) for a fourth time, already.

Back in the early 90s, we had to stay at the hotel when coming down for National Guard Drill. It was rough even back then.

C’mon Man!!

That mumbalumba’s new free drive thru FNEJ car wash

That was a Pizza Hut, wasn’t it?

The local TV stations are reporting about the water main break too because it affects area businesses with a loss of water pressure, disrupts traffic, etc. It's a legitimate news story.
