was the access road flooded?

Kingfish said...

Nope. And it is elevated.

I assume the point is this post is that nobody bothered to show up today?

Didn’t you get the memo that it was a rain day?

Any water main breaks due to the high water?

Any soda ash caking due to high humidity due to high water?

Any unpaid suppliers cutting off the shipment of supplies during the high water?

Any water plant operators off work due to the high water?

So the Mayor is using the flooding to use as the excuse for declaring emergency. The alternative would be to say they failed all on their own. Can’t have that. Now the state will pitch in to fix it and the city will eff it up again. If taxpayers have to pay for it then the city shouldn’t have any say in operations or get their hands on any money

Once again the Emperor Polluter believes he can say anything, anything, with impunity.

Does anyone see more than 2 vehicles?

Is there anyone within Jackson City Government that can provide a straight and honest, detailed reason for the current problem.

Blaming the flooding and saying ya gotta refill the tanks just ain't going to cut it.

Does a State called state of emergency allow removing the mayor and city council?

Are you calling Mayor Lumumba a liar? Funny how you won’t do that to his face!

Maybe all the water plant emploees take a JATRAN bus to the water plant?

Every time I think the mayah can't do any worse, he proves me wrong. How much further to the bottom? Surely, the mayah will quit digging when the bottom is reached.

The city of Jackson, can't be turned around until the mayah stops going in the wrong direction.

Who will be the first to play the race card when the state steps in?

If you look at Google satellite view there are 5 personal vehicles at office building in back. Same number of 5 today, plus there's a small work crew out back gate. They may be understaffed but they're consistently understaffed.
Good pics KF

MAYOR declares state of emergency…. That didn’t age well. Seems Tater have Lyin Lumumba the finger

The real question is how does Rukia arrange a big payday from this debacle?

When reports blame the most recent issue on flooding, do they mean to imply the plant is infiltrated with flood water, which is clearly or, or is there some mechanism by which the plant receives water from a source that is now flooded and therefore creates problems with contaminants or debris or something? I’m asking honestly because I don’t know.

The parking lot is definately flooded, but Jackson water is so clear (no turbids) that you can see right through it.

I’m beginning to think most posters are too stupid to realize the difference in supplying water and treating wastewater. Y’all know it’s two different processes right? Geez.

@7:20 Do you really think hizz is telling the truth? A lot of us would call him a liar.

Looks like a nice clean place. Wonder if they rent it out for birthdays, bar/bat mitzvas, weddings etc. I mean, it's just sitting there doing literally nothing.

The governor said in the press conference that state resources will be used to identify the issues and help implement a fix. If the mayor is lying about the situation at the plant, we will find out very soon as I’m sure the governor would be more than happy to share that information.

ITS TIME TO PUT Political ambitions, egos etc. aside and help the people.

I have read in several places that the Pearl River has been closed. What exactly does that mean? I know the water is still running downstream. I know it is still full of shit from Jackson.
How did they close the Pearl River?

This incompetent city administration will end up getting the water plane & sewer plant rebuilt on someone else's dime and in 10 years it will be right back in the same shape it is now.....and this sh*tshow will be showing version 2 of the disaster.

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.
