SOS got new shoes, haircut, new job

The Mississippi Secretary of State's office just upgraded its website. Looks better and much cleaner.

Looks better and cleaner, but reads like he's thinking of running for governor.

Well, I've spotted one thing wrong with it. All pending orders by Securities and Charities division are no longer on there. Steadivest, Fine Arts Institute of Mississippi, Union Center in Corinth, none of them are on here. Hope its a quirk they fix.

Politicians pictured reading books to school children should always beg the questions as to how often they did the same before they ran for office.

I've known Delbert my entire life and if there is one thing about him I know it is this - some upgrade to a website isn't evidence of a foundation he is laying to run for further political office. Guy is a consummate worker. He'd do it regardless. Which is exactly why I wish he is one day in the Mansion.

Well I admire him too, but my admiration has "slipped" alot of levels since his boneheaded, stubborn, "know-it-all" attitude on the project at the "Mississippi School for the Blind".

He blew that one. Blew it so bad, new legislation in the House and Senate cuts the office of the SOS completely out of the negotiation process.

can't seem to find a list of judicial candidates or link to. Any suggestions.

So you are upset that Teddy wants the state to bend over and take one for another new urbanist pipe dream in Jackson? Maybe you can tell us where all the people are going to come from to fill all of these pipe dreams?

Imagine that, people pissed off because Hoseman was protecting Mississippi taxpayers. There is a novel concept.

The site is actually a beta test. Should be worked out in a few days.

Noticed that. Links to old/existing pages showing certificate failures, etc. I'll give them a few days, still think it looks more like political messaging than accomplishments...could just be they are the only the visuals they have available.

But where will all the people come from to buy the condos Mr. Quack Quack? Metro grows barely 1% annually.

You're so cool. I wish I were as cool as you. One day...

Hey KF,

Is it me or are the local news outlets being just a bit more investigative in their work???

Don't go too far KK. WAPT @ 6 PM reported Friday's stock market closing numbers as today's even though the market was closed for POTUS day.

leland bridges said...

130 condos is NOT a huge population shift MORON. DUH. (Do the math. Maybe 250 people. The King and the Standard will have more than them)

Keep posting and show your stupidity, dumbass, then go argue with the Templeton Group.

Oh yeah sunshine, the King is full and the Standard has 103 people on the "hold an apartment for me" list of hopefuls for the 76 apartments. Stupid phuck.

Hey we all make mistakes, just look at the posting of that situation that was posted a couple weeks ago.

Anonymous said...

OK you two number geeks with the problem of where we need something, ask KF to publish a story about your issue. I'm sure he takes contributions, if, they are well written.

Any minute now the loser will toss out some CMPDD data and then tell us we're going to lose another seat in Congress if we don't bend over for more local bubble economics.

Of course the know-it-all avoids mentioning that Hosemann -- with an undergrad Business Degree from Notre Dame, a law degree from Ole Miss, a Masters of Law in Taxation from NYU and a lengthy background in practicing Business and Taxation Law -- was merely following the law to lease the property as written and to the letter.

Even though he supposedly is working with all of these stupendous numerics that will virtually guarantee wild success and riches Duckworth wanted a sweetheart deal to reduce the skin he had to put into the game. That is the bottom line.

i tried to do a corp search on the SOS site today and my computer raised the red security flags.

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.

Trollfest '07

Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. 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.
