interesting. So people who have jobs and arent paid to astroturf for the Lumumba narrative will have to take off work to attent the “peoples’ commisar committe for water equity” in order to counter the shills? This is why I don’t consider democrats and commies to be people.

Ok. Here's my comments:
-Mayor and family members need to get the hell out of the way
-Ted etal doing good job.
-Judge doing good job.
-Less concentration on trying to get info to lower folks meters (they can submit photo id and id relating to gov assistance for this) and more concentration on getting every person and business signed up for water accounts. And paying them.
-if water bill not paid, cut off. Period. 50% of the population can not and will not continually cover the costs of the systems.
-EPA, give Ted the damn money he needs to do the job tasked. One of the best ideas was to use some of that money to pay off old debt to get things current. EPA nixed that.
-Under no circumstances whatsoever turn the water system back over to the city of Jackson.
-Under no circumstances whatsoever turn over any funds at all to the City of Jackson or the current Mayor and family.

And by the way, why JSU? The city of Jackson is actually larger than the mayor's office and JSU.

No meeting location on the East side of State Street? Typical and calculated.

Email one and all. Let the Lumumba cronies go to the meeting. Everyone else send an email with your opinions on the trajectory of the water system since the state took it over and Judge Wingate appointed Henefin. How completely mismanaged all facets of the administration under Lumumba is relevant as is the tragedy that would result if he’s handed the keys to the water system. If there’s a single thing he competently manages what is it?

Regarding the location of the 'symposium' one must understand who set it up? Any guesses?

"The public input is intended to inform the EPA’s oversight of the drinking water system to ensure that it meets the requirements of the Safe Drinking Water Act and provides clean, safe and reliable water to all customers."

EPA is holding a town hall for advice from the public on compliance with the Safe Drinking Water Act? How about checking in with the water system receiver, or the federal court overseeing the receiver, or Miss. Dept. of Heatlh, or just testing the water for your itself.

This smells like a set up.

Everyone welcome our executive branch federal overlords for a predictable pre-election campaign visit designed to give the appearance of activism while shoring up the democrat base vote.

Why can’t this be held at Thalia Mara Hall?

I need to risk my car and my life for the privilege of entering West Jackson to listen to Rukia and her band of belly bouncers shout racist slogans about water equity?

Please ask exactly that when you attend.

OK, SouthWest Jxn, still too dangerous for me and my family and I don't feel safe just carrying because I want to avoid a threat or shootout to begin with.

Leftist democrat jacksonians just need to do what pathological liar Hillary Clinton did during the Flint Michigan water debacle and blame it on the Republican Governor.

Re EPA feds, they’re democrats that won’t do anything to democrat jackson.

Kingfish, rumor on the street is that Mayor is proposing two Boards to oversee the water system, both with members appointed solely by the Mayor. Do some digging please.

Hopefully the same legislator will reintroduce his bill again in January.

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.

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.
