Destruction

To say Last Call was incinerated last night is no understatement. The photos posted below say it all. Thankfully, no one was hurt. 







This little message appeared on Facebook: 

Today's reminder from the sensitive one (me).... My yoga classes are directly to the west of Last Call Sports Bar & Grill. Yesterday they had their employee Christmas party. They enjoyed themselves! So much so my instructor asked could they turn the music down a little for 45 good minutes just a little for us to get in our zen.... None of those people employed thought today there would be no job to go to, especially in this season. I share this for you to take a moment and pray EVERY DAY . Pray for peace, covering, guidance and whatever comes to mind from the Most High. Life is the longest thing you will ever do if you are blessed but it is full of ups, downs, changes, turns & twists. Be kind to people, help if you can, pray if you may but be nice. People are fighting seen and unseen battles, others are gearing up for battles they did not even know they were about to enter. Some are healing, growing, sowing whatever. Give some grace to yourself & others. Often times I have learned those who lack grace for others, also have none for themselves. We all are operating under grace, got to read your bible to know that! Be good yall. This Tuesday has Mondayed the hell out me already! My sensors are on HIGH alert! BE NICE.

It was reported on social media that County Cajun Seafood Market & Boudin caught fire last night as well.  However, this correspondent drove around the building and saw no evidence of a fire.

Considering how hard restaurants in this town work to remain staffed I have no doubt any of the better employees of this establishment can find work in 72 hours, tops.

Looks like an insurance company just made a real estate investment.

I read my Bible thoroughly and yoga is a direct contradiction to God's word backed by many verses. Not some hearsay from a curmudgeon but directly from God's word so readeth a cultured but saved by grace Gen Xer.

Kingfish is so glad nobody was hurt. What a warm feeling and expression. A firebug always clears his own building before torching it. He knows arson is bad enough...shore don't want no murder charge.

3:54 Please do site a few examples of the "many verses." The yoga that is practiced here is not a worshiping of false gods session, but simply stretching and strengthening exercises.

I'm not 3:54 but yoga is much more than "stretching and strengthening exercises." Yoga websites teach "Yoga, at its core, isn’t just a series of stretches or relaxation exercises. It has deep spiritual roots that originate primarily in ancient Indian religions like Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism."

Kingfish said...

Oh please. I've been to quite a few around here. They are really power stretching is what they are. Nothing satanic about downward dog or Warrior 3. Mr. Speed is the one who got me to start doing it. Did it for 30 years. Said it was why he was active at his age. Ones I've been to have never had anything spiritual. Hell, even if they did, I was struggling to stretch too much to pay attention.

Considering how poorly paid restaurant staff are paid I have no doubt the better employees will find another dead end job

3:54 stop the hillbilly gibberish about your invisible friends and yoga , you're the reason this state is last in everything ... keep licking trumps boots and thinking you will get into heaven....

Thank you 724am for reminding us of what hate filled, miserable people you atheist are. I wonder why that is. And then you hate and resent God even more because you don't get it. You even get in a redneck insult and show your obsession with Trump. I feel so sorry for you but I/m not going to pray for you. I'm a flawed human and relish in your misery.

So this fine, upstanding business (he says very tongue-in-cheek) goes up in smoke and we're talking yoga? That tracks, I guess.

Please cite exactly which verses you're referring to for I'd like to read them for my own edification and expand my biblical references.

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.
