Funny of the Day

 Not going to lie, this is almost painful to watch.   



Don't think these are American troops.

Chowke's "free the land" paratroopers?

Try to understand that some foreign kids get put into "Airborne" with very little training and may not have even flown in an airplane before.

I remember a jump with Hondurans who were not only illiterate and totally untrained, but terrified. One fell on the ramp of a CH 47 slippery with hydraulic fluid and several were thrown out. Boots in behinds.

Jumpmasters should have been on their behinds. Sitting on the ramp like a kid testing out the pool water to see if it's "too cold?" But LMAO at the one going belly down out after falling. The ones landing off the DZ because of spazzes could get killed.

Not so sure they aren't Reservists or Guard folks as a guy shouts "Go" in English. Very poorly trained, though. They could have easily had malfunctions. Hopefully a US trainer or aircrew at worst and not our troops doing this sloppy exit.

Only their laundry knows how scared they actually were. Luckily looked like everyone got a good main up and survived.

There must be something intrusive that my privacy tools are blocking. I don’t see a video.

*sigh*
No those are just zoomers. They are military aged now.
And they are all just like that everywhere in the world.

“Not so sure they aren't Reservists or Guard”

Hey 9:38,

There is no separate airborne school or training for reserve/national guard forces. Active duty, Army Reserve and National Guard all receive the exact same training and the airborne classes are mixed with Soldiers from each, with no distinction.

You sound like an ignorant civilian or a really old boomer that doesn’t understand how the National Guard of today has transitioned into an operational reserve force that is constantly sending units on overseas rotations because the active Army component is unable or unwilling to meet its global obligations. Today’s National Guard equals and often exceeds the training and equipment readiness of our active duty peers even though we are a part time force. Right now the latest generation of M1 tanks and most experienced tank mechanics in the entire US Army are at Camp Shelby, MS. The MS Army National Guard has all Army helicopter frames, an armor brigade combat team, a special forces detachment, military police, air defense, an engineer brigade and many other capabilities.. all right here in MS.

I know that for one thing, they all learned about how gravity actually works. Good for them. Will do better next time or just won't show up.

I'm not going to lie. I'd be the one who turned around and started trying to claw my way back into the plane.

As a kid, I was also the one who would get on the high dive at the city pool, stand there in agony for 5 minutes (with everyone screaming "JUMP!!!") only to turn around and climb back down the ladder and make everyone in line get out of my way because I was NOT going to "jump!"

Needless to say... I did not join the military. LOL

its a good thing that they were not required to pull a rip cord on that jump

@8:49 PM - Good decision, as Clint Eastwood would say, "A man's got to know his limitations."

Been there. Ft Benning, GA. First jump ain’t easy.

Are these some of the ones will be going in to Ukraine to do another bang-up job of saving democracy and freedom?

It is when there is a boot in your ass. ;-)

Glad I served as a paratrooper in Italy. European troopers were much better trained.

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.

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.
