Rudy has a job.

Yup. The Madison Board of Supervisors just voted 3-1 to rehire County Engineer Rudy Warnock. Paul Griffin, Karl Banks, and Gerald Steen voted to rehire Mr. Warnock. Newcomer Ronnie Lott voted no. Board President John Bell Crosby? He had another "engagement".

By the way, this matter was not on the agenda. Doesn't really bother me. People voted for this in Madison County last year, they got it.

Crosby's absence to avoid the vote on Warnock means he just ceded an issue to MHB.

That is the difference between John bell Crosby and George Smith, Doug Anderson, and Robert Graham. At least they stand up and defend Stacy Stowers, Nathan Hargrove, Porter Bingham, and their other cronies, not run from the room.

Oh, and if he was somewhere really pressing, the law DOES allow for him to call in and vote.

John Bell could not vote against Rudy after getting 10,000.00 from him--

So much for the "90-day trial". Eric Hamer, come on down. You are next up for a 3-1 with an abstention vote.

Way to puss out Bag Boy. Have the balls to say that you are bought.

There was either a mishap with the feather-duster
in produce or the chickens got stuck in the rotisserie.

I wonder who Rudy took to Costa Rica for a weekend of "fishing".

I hear that the contract contained substantial hourly fee increases for engineer, asst engineer, etc.... If you haven't kept up with the history of Madison County contracts for engineering services, check this out...

If Crosby had been there and voted against Warnock, wouldn't Warnock still won the contract?

I also heard after all the complaints Crosby is back at the Kroger in Madison, I am glad that the customers prevailed her and not the Queen.

Shadowfax said...

Right on 4:42. I'm sure excellent customer service can only result if Crosby is left at the Madison store. After all, nobody should be allowed to shop in peace without the occasional button-hole interruption from Crosby whining about his objections to the mayor.

And "PICKLE JUICE - AISLE 3" can never be announced over the intercom by any junior level manager in the Kroger network.

Regardless of whether or not Warnock would still carry the vote ducking an opportunity to demonstrate leadership will reverberate next year.

Let's hope D.I. has as large an effect on Ridgeland as Steen is having on Madison County. Equal, but opposite.

I seem to remember some commenters here, prior to the election, saying that Lott was in Warnock/Elvis' pocket. Apparently they were full of crap.

Kingfish said...

I thought so and don't mind admitting I was wrong.

I guess the "STRIPPER" fish were biting!!! I am so glad to be in Rankin where the biggest issue is whether we post our minutes on the internet. HA

Yeah ... right ... the Weathersby mafia isn't an issue ... sure ... whatever you say ... [birds chirping in Mayberry]

Warnock has gotten rich at a young age, off the people of Madison County. He has done what they asked, he just charges whatever he wants and they pay for it, no matter what the hourly rate, ect. The people of Madison COunty voted for these guys, and its up to them to put a end to it on the next election.

"I also heard after all the complaints Crosby is back at the Kroger in Madison, "

Which Madison Kroger - the revamped Highway 51 Kroger, or the new Highway 463 store?

Micah Gober said...

I saw Kroger man at the fuel station next to his kingdom. He appeared to have some guilt. I would to if my popularity rating was the same a Kenny Stokes.

Thank you Mr. Lott for stand up and voting the way public wants.

So how many of you called and complained to your supervisor?

Shadowfax said...

At least one Niknarian has 'strippers' on his mind. You have to venture over into Hinds for that (at least legally).

I intend to ask Crosby, when next I see him, why he ducked this vote. I'm sure he reads this site so he might wanta be coming up with a convincing excuse.

PS: If there is to be an ongoing contest on JJ between Niknar and Nosidam lets be sure to include freezers on the road used as garbage bins.

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.
