At least they didn't run for Mayor.

Congrats to Chokwe Lumumba, Jr. and Tony Yarber.  Congrats to the rest of the candidates. Not easy. Raising money, door-knocking, asking for votes.  Then everyone is an expert.  They always have better ideas on how to campaign but never quite seem to be able to get around to running for office themselves.  Having written that little sentence, taking a break this morning.  Here is a story that should keep you entertained.  Pearl prostitutes busted. Damn, have our dregs of society gotten that bad?

The sex workers of Pearl are an exhibit of the cross border social problems of our area. Every Jackson mayor since Dale Danks have sponsored metro boards to deal with our shared concerns, but mostly have dealt with public works or economic development. The local hospitals have to investigate metropolitan medical needs to maintain their certifications. Prostitution or sexually transmitted disease is not in anyone's mission statement or political agenda.

The news story says "the offenders travelled to Pearl" to complete the offense after placing ads on backpage.com.

These are not necessarily people from Pearl. They just met up in Pearl.

I strongly recomment that Kashika Smith RUN, not walk, to the salon de beauté where Sunday lady-columnist David Creel works his hair magic. Ms. Kashika needs a style intervention, stat. Actually, all them HOs are in need of a makeover, if they hope to succeed in their ancient and noble profession (after they make bail)...

Compare "Emily Campbell" in her mugshot, and on her Facebook page. Definitely looks like drugs played a part in her downfall. Facebook says she is also engaged.

I do have to wonder why we have burglars, fences, car thieves, bad check artists, shoplifters, etc arrested and NO pictures provided to the public. It would seem useful for the public to have some idea what these criminals look like for avoidance purposes. Yet prostitutes get featured. You probably won't be 'victimized' by these women unless you choose to call them. And if you run into one on the street and they make an offer, clearly what they are offering is illegal and you can choose to pass. Different deal than choosing whether you want to give admittance to a burglar or give up your car to a jacker. What is the reasoning behind CL providing pix of them yet failing to publish shots of those who commit crimes of stealth? Is it just an amusement factor decision?

No doubt these "ladies" decided to use Pearl as a meeting place because business is not good in J-Town - I mean how many men are willing to come to JXN with cash in hand - may not get to the "ladies" before they are robbed. I have a big problem when they post pictures of these ladies and do not post pictures of men who want to use their services - double standard

The very idea of sex for money is inherently funny, 10:05, so, yes,"amusement" is indeed a factor. The idea that a gentleman would fork over cash for half an hour of bliss with these skanks---well, if the *CL* really wants to elicit big guffaws, it should publish photos of the (equally ugly, I feel certain)clients!

Seriously, though, as with marijuana, I wonder why (adult) prostitution is illegal at all. Seems to me that it's consensual, and harms no one outside the pathetic twosome involved in the transaction.

Wow. Plenty of judgment being handed down on these ladies this morning and afternoon. The difference between these ladies and those on "full scholarship" in Eastover is what, exactly? (Aside from the fact that the answer is often "no" when Eastover husbands proposition their trophy wives, of course.)

Anyone who comments negatively about the Pearl ladies, should post a pic of their wife. Let's see if you did any better...

Read much? A few of these were arrested with their kids in the room.

Aw, let's just excuse all bad behavior. After all, they were just doing jobs no American will do.

Y'all don't be hatin' on these HOs. It's an honorable profession. All work is good.

Well, 9:36, dear, getting blind-ass drunk is perfectly legal, with or without one's kids in the room. For that matter, having connubial relations with one's legal spouse with kids in the room is not a crime, either. Bad idea? Sure, but not against the law. So I don't quite know what your point is. If some ooogly broad can make a buck marketing her sad assets, and if some loser is willing to pay, the presence or absence of "children in the room" is no different from...oh, whatever. Garbage is garbage, and here we are quibbling about the size and shape of the can. Book 'em all, Danno.

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.
