No Comment!

It appears someone might need some Coppertone. 



The snoozefest is taking place at the corner of North State Street and Meadowbrook Road.  Obviously this is the fault of the Jackson City Council since it has not approved the "hotel" rooms for the Taste restaurant.

Every time I drive past that old bank building I see homeless people there.

Say a prayer for this person and hope you never wind up in this situation.

Why don’t homeless men do more to help themselves? It seems to be more of a lifestyle choice.

Real simple if you don’t have any money you can’t pay rent. Maybe they had a job and the boss came down on him and he told him to fuck off and he got fired. I know quite a few people that would be homeless if not for their families. This person obviously doesn’t have that safety net. Why would anyone choose to be homeless.

What you allow, you get more of. Society doesn’t HAVE to put up with this.

@5:35 PM, some years past, my late wife and her sister, both of who worked downtown Jackson, helped a homeless man from time to time with clothing, blankets, socks, snack foods, and other things. I forget what she said his name was. He was an older white man who pushed his belongings about in a shopping basket, she said, and sometimes they’d not see him for months.

She told me that he absolutely refused to go to a shelter, didn’t matter how cold or how bad or how hungry he got. Said he couldn’t come and go as he wanted at night, and sometimes, depending on the quality of some people in the shelter at the time, he would absolutely want to get out of there but was locked inside.

Homeless women seem to do more to help themselves but the men it’s more of a lifestyle choice. You can offer them a job but they don’t won’t to work The women will take a job. The men are just lazy

People who work with the homeless and cops here in Jackson say the same thing: Most of the homeless are druggies who don't want treatment.

He or she is not there in the rain today but left plenty of trash.

In the 70s my favorite Krystal was right across the street, and still is I believe.
Rode there often with friends from Woodland Hills. A different era for sure.

N o question who is prowling Fondren at night stealing everything not chained down.

"In the 70s my favorite Krystal was right across the street"

That was one of my favorite Kyrstal's as well.

I will not mention other memories such as Pasquale's/El Burito, Miller's, Meadowbrook McRae's , Seal Lily, the Golden Dragon, Dutch Bar and many others.

Look for it only in books, for it is no more than a dream remembered. A civilization gone with the wind...

Beautiful quote 11:54. My sentiments exactly.

I will never be in that situation, because some of that is a choice in the decision you make. Make better life decisions and you can avoid these things. Being an adult can be hard but that doesn’t mean you are totally absolved from the decisions you make. Taking responsibility and striving, everyday, to do the next right thing can put you in a better place.

9:05, by telling the source of income to fuck off, that’s how you choose to be homeless. People have no tack and can’t seem to understand the phrase, “pick your battles.” More and more men are showing that they don’t want to work hard to achieve, they just want someone else to pay their way. No one cares about men in society, no wonder why men want to be females these days. I work very hard to support my family and make the necessary sacrifices todo so. Everyone can be in a better place if they invest in themselves and make the right decisions for the future. But, I suppose it is easier to rely on everyone else to give you what you need

You are the problem @1:54. Plain and simple. Demand more of these vagrants and shun them the same way they've shunned making good decisions.

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.
