And Richard's Does (n't) Do It Again

 Richard's Disposal failed to pick up the garbage in the Country Club of Jackson, yesterday.  Don't feel too bad, Clubbers.  They didn't pick up my street either.  Called Tuesday morning.  The number always rang three times and disconnected.  A pleasant-sounding lady answered around 11 and said the garbage would be picked up that day.  Of course it never was.  Progress!

One of these mornings those trucks are going to caravan back to Louisiana, unpaid, while little Richard spins and shouts in court for his money.

Confused said...

If Richard’s is discriminating against wealthy white folk, the must not realize Eastover has all the cash

I'd take it and dump it on the steps of city hall. Isn't that where the trash is most of the time anyway.

Well Sanderson family in CCJ also has some cash as does Yates. Listen Eastover has lots of old huge cash money families
Even Romney and bush and Rubio did $10,000 plate lunch fundraisers in some houses there. How about the family there that just sold there Martha’s Vineyard beach house for $27 million and also have 4 more including the one at pebble beach
Along with 27 workers or family staff that caters to family cooks cleans drives I mean it’s like downton Abby there.

They’re down to once a week pickup if you’re lucky, no big ass garbage cans and aren’t getting paid. What a cluster fu*k.

Makes sense since there is such a large herd of RINOs in that area.

Living in Jackson is a choice people make. I figure you chose to put up with this kind of city government service. If you are a Jackson resident, be proud of the lifestyle you have chosen.

I live in Eastover and we haven't missed a single pickup.

Just dump it on the side of the road anywhere within Jackson City Limits, no one will notice it.

Kingfish, what's the fixation with the Country Club of Jackson? It's not like that's the only place the trash isn't getting picked up.

How he can consider himself a Mayor blows my mind.. Wondering why there is No Police presence in Jackson blows my mind also. Kinda defunded the PD without actually saying those words in my opinion. Limited what they can-could do, reduce the Force by 100 or so, don't answer 911 calls etc, etc, etc.. Now trying to Play on the Big Stage as giving a darn. Jackson residents should be up-in arms with him, not the PD. He's simply accomplishing his Dad's mission with another tone.

Downton Abbey vs Downscale Crappy.

Well at least the water, sewer, and roads are in great shape.

Waste Management picked up right on schedule in Madison County. Even on Memorial Day.

I was out at Caroline on Monday and got behind a Waste Management truck. I was a little surprised but I guess getting a day behind puts a strain on their schedule.

Richards picked up right on schedule in Eastover in Hinds County. Even on Memorial Day.

Why contract with the proven best (WM) when you can choose the company that greases palms, right?

Anonymous said...

I do not understand this situation. It’s obvious to literally EVERYONE that chokwe gave a contract to someone he owed a favor to/or something else. I do not understand how officials aren’t looking extremely closely at this situation to hash out what has happened here.

Please help us understand why these decent hard working Jacksonians can’t even have the comfort of knowing their garbage will get hauled away.

This is crap

I report because I get tips from residents. Residents in other neighborhoods are more than welcome to send tips when their garbage isn't picked up.

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.

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.
