Don't Step on It

 Seen at Kroger yesterday.  If encountered in the wild, whatever you do, don't step on it.  It contains a live person.

That person must have a death wish.

KF, thanks for these little "breaks" in the normalcy of the regular topics.

Everyone needs a break, now more than ever.

Is Top Gear filming another episode in Mississippi? Jeremy Clarkson would often drive those dodgy little tax evaders in gag segments of Top Gear back when it was still enjoyable to watch.

Top Gear UK (for the uninitiated)

They are in the left lane and there is a car coming. What a horrible time to stop the video! Seriously, though, what is that thing? Is it street legal?

It's a Velomobile-a recumbent trike as the HPV (human powered vehicle) with that shell over it.

These folks on the reclining cycles on the Natchez Trace have lost their minds.

Me and my little boy saw this little oddity yesterday over near the YMCA in Flowood on the walking trail / sidewalk that runs parallel to the road. The pic doesn't really represent it well. It was very sleek and super shiny yellow. Def an silly thing to see driving around

I need one of those. My grandchildren would think I am cool.

Reminds me of Cousin It's car in the Addams Family movie.

I’ve seen this idiot or one similar traveling up Old Fannin Road. Talk about a death wish.....

That the prototype of JPD's latest environmentally friendly patrol cars. There is no room for suspects, so murderers, etc. will be on their honor to turn themselves into the jail.

Driving that toy in the wrong lane indicates a definite death wish.

Cousin It's car was an Isetta. A street legal automobile. YOu wouldnt in either one of the damn things.

It's a tragic comedy how much people here in MS hate pedestrian/bicycle traffic.

New VW model, called the VW deathtrap. All kidding aside, there might be some problems getting the state to declare it street legal. I guess if it is tooling around the Kroger lot, it must be OK.

12:14 PM for the win.

I hope there's not a thousand of these pussy "vehicles" holding up traffic on the Trace next Spring.

What you are all seeing is our not-too-distant future.

I say this because you could cover every inch of the USA with solar panels and you couldn't collect enough energy to power EVs for everyone, much less support the grid utilization for homes and business. Therefore, expect HPV to be the affordable transportation solution after the Green New Deal.

While the growing middle class in China scramble to buy their first car (Which will no doubt be EV technology stolen from GM/Tesla/Ford) Americans will be walking, biking, and cramming into scarce public transport because we will all be more impoverished than your average Chinese and Internal Combustion Engine vehicles will be heavily restricted and taxed beyond affordability.

The entire dystopia will be implemented by federeal decree.

Some the cyclists are okay. Most are arrogant and beyond detrimental to their remaining economic life. Seems they would plan a ride to be outside of high traffic times. Especially on a damn highway where the speed limit is 55. Warning to all of you... Do not ride in the middle of a lane just to be an asshole. You should be more respectful of the reason the highway built. You’re going to get killed.

The Mayor of Ridgeland loves pedal powered vehicles.
(AKA Bikes)

I have no problem with that . . . Lord knows he's spent millions carving out "bike" trails.

All I ask is they stop holding up traffic on the Natchez Trace.
4:58 PM was spot on . . . . "Most are arrogant".

And I honestly can't take an arrogant Ass Hole (wearing a wet suit and a goofy helmet) serious
. . . when they give me the finger as I pass them.

Clinton to Rocky Springs should take about 30 minutes.
(Not three hours with these cyclists holding up traffic).

I've written two tickets to bikers. One the so called normal upright type and one to a guy in one of these. Both riding through red lights. Bitching their asses off, but same road, same rules, as their bumper stickers say. Have to agree bike and pedestrian traffic in MS is never addressed. On my way to and from work I always see the same crazy guy by the Crawfish Shack on Old Canton in Ridgeland walking down the center turn lane like it's his sidewalk. Now, that's a damn death wish.

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.

If you get tired come relax at the Fox News Tent. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag.
