I don't have time to read this. Are they becoming Buddhists?

I am inclined to say that Sister Dorothea is irreplaceable, but we will wait and see. Meanwhile, I hope that she is fully appreciated for all of the blessings we have received from her.

From Dominican to Franciscan. Doesn't sound like much of a change. Hope it won't be.

The Dominican order has all but disappeared, with the nuns turning older and fewer coming into the order. The Dominicans should forever be appreciated by the city and the entire state for what they have done both in the medical field and also being good corporate citizens. I'm sure this was a hard decision for them to make, but it appears that their interest was in keeping with their historical actions in finding a similar order to take over their operations.

Having had multiple members of my immediate family subjected to St. Catherines Village, the Cancer Center and the hospital in general over the past 2 years, I wouldn't wish what my family has been through with this outfit on my worst enemy.

You folks are getting ready to learn how a hospital is run. They will have a Madison location up and running in 5 years.

@6:32,
I think a Madison location is ideal. Mississippi sports medicine doctors drive from there houses in NE Jackson and Fondren daily to Madison to treat patients. I drive as a physician from CCJ to sports medicine in flowood daily. Patients all over the metro need to be served. Baptist downtown is about to do a huge addition and increase the OR space as surgeons have asked that of them for 7 yrs now.

Amen 2:58. There’s nothing charitable about this corporation. Several years ago , St Catherine’s threw a Methodist missionary out just before Christmas because a family member had stolen his money and he could no longer pay. He died a week later. I could go on and on and on about the abuses I’ve seen there. As far as the hospital goes, better pray you’ve got a family member with you that knows what’s going on or you may not come out.

Argumentative Fallacy.

Sorry you had such a bad experience but to paint the entire place so negatively based on isolated events tells every reader what a bitter silly bitch you are.

Take more ambien

Sister Dorothea is not what you think. She has a history of harassing the panhandlers on interstate right of way as well as being blinded to realities that are kept from her by her minions....

Pick me! said...

Is there an opening in the convent? I haven’t had a date in years. Where do I sign up?

People have become even more wary of the catholic church. Not at all what they want you to think. It has been systemically corrupt for centuries. A magnet for deviants. They need a new business model.

I still hold a grudge for being force fed fried fish sticks during Friday elementary school lunch.

Allow me to be more specific then. The nursing home at St Catherine’s, Siena Center to be exact. Bitter, no. Disgusted, yes. I’m willing to bet you’re the administrator there they all call Cruella Deville. I could list infraction after infraction. Not a bitch either, but karma sure is.

Titular Head Of What? said...

Other than showing up occasionally in the atrium or appearing 600 times for photo ops, what the hell has Sister Dorethea personally or collaterally done to improve healthcare or to affect the lives of one single damned one of you or your relatives, friends, neighbors or anybody else living or dead? I'll stand by for answers......

A Fried Breast and Two Rolls Please, And Gravy said...

These wicked women, like their pope, is in it for the money. He wants to change the world's political stage and they want to ensure their cushy retirement. And yes, those fucking panhandlers along the roadway near St. D. need to be sent back to their Capitol Street ratholes with their bogus 'Memphis or Bust' cardboard signs stuck up their asses. No more quarts in brown paper sacks for them. Name me one Catholic, unless he or she is a doctor or nurse, who administers healthcare.

People! This is nothing more than a corporate merger not unlike Baptist Memphis taking over Baptist Jackson. Hospitals have to consolidate so that Blue Cross of Mississippi can continue screwing the healthcare community.
Our Lady of the Lake is a fantastic hospital and St. Dominic will benefit
from the association.

At the end of the day, a needle is a needle, an amputation is an amputation and an enema is an inconvenience. Ain't got shit to do with the Catholic church or which brand of habit the sisters wear.

@ 923am spoken like a true Maloney brother.....

Surely none of you commenting about the panhandlers enjoy their presence. Odds are you’re only going after the Catholic faith and maybe even religion on the whole. Not a pacticing Christian here and I’m certainly not a Catholic, but more power to Sister if she tried to remove the vagrants from the prominent intersection. Who knows, maybe she knows just like the rest of us do, the homeless need real help - not beer and cigarette money.

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. 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.
