Jackson Jambalaya

Please compose a musical comedy to lampoon America's singularly most inept and deceitful Mayor.

You are really pushing the envelope by booking those 2025-2026 events.
Remember, this is Jackson.

“Chokwe - The musical” is an intense drama playing out every day throughout a once great city. It features murder, despair, incompetence and of course corruption. Critics hail “ it’s so sad and pathetic that it’s almost comedy”

Great news!

Thanks, Chokwe! You are doing a great job to destroy Jackson.

Regardless of the time I blare on my horn every time I pass his house on Ridgewood.

Does the State Constitution Provide a Way to Fire an Elected Official that, well won't say Incompetence but say "In Over Their Head" and Unable to Do the Job?

Just criminal, Choke.

“The height of the ridiculous.” Mold found in TMH In August…two months later…mold still in TMH. Nothing done in TWO MONTHS. I have dealt with mold in an old house, it gets worse as time goes by.

Do you guys have any idea how long it takes to remediate a space as large as Thalia Mara? You also realize that the underlying causes of what caused the mold growth has to be fixed before remediation begins. That could mean repairing/replacing the roof, repairing plumbing leaks, fixing or replacing the HVAC, etc. Also, the city is a governmental entity and subject to many state procurement laws. Even with the use of an emergency declaration, things just take longer. And with all the underlying issues, companies have to come and inspect and write reports of what they discovered and create scopes of work. I mean, just figuring out the logistics of what order to attack the remediation and figuring out how to segregate areas of the building to prevent cross contamination takes time.

And really, how many of y’all are upset that you can’t see an off broadway presentation of Pretty Woman?

All comedy shows have been consolidated and are now located on the executive wing of city hall.

I don't think any serious person disagrees with what you wrote, 6:54. What has people stood up is what happened to Thalia Mara Hall is part of a pattern of neglect practiced by the administration. Remember the libraries? Remember not ordering electrical panels for water pumps for nine months? The administration expects us to believe the HVAC conked out during a weekend and presto, mold appeared within 42-72 hours. Um, yeah. More likely it was the HVAC ran at a reduced capacity for some time and unable to control the humidity. If the HVAC has been impaired for quite some time, why was it not repaired before it got to this point? They've been renting chillers for events so they knew.

At this point, is the destruction intentional?

If only someone had the foresight to add a surcharge to ticket sales, so that proactive preventive maintenance could've been done...(sigh).

Someone needs to do a public records request for all the maintenance and repair invoices for Thalia Mara in the last 5 years. To see if there are any responsive records.

Thanks, Kingfish, for the information in that last sentence!

Yes. (and what follows, reflects only my personal opinions) We, at this point, can safely surmise that this and similar dysfunctions, are intentional and FORMULAIC. The formula serves an END GOAL, and incorporates REWARDS for those implementing it. The End Goal seems to be supremacy for a group centered on another continent. The Reward System (grift opportunities) also tends to ensure silence and loyalty, from those implementing the weaponized incompetence.

Lackeys are paid, by being allowed to steal (with the tacit assurance that they will be shielded from serious repercussions).

Just move it out of Jackson. Maybe Madison
