Looking forward to the 'softball game'. In due deference to 'Ole Leland', I'm sure you won't ask him what the hell happened to all the industrial development pipe dreams.

Is there a theme for tomorrow KF or is it just a general discussion?

Kingfish said...

Working on my questions now. Here are some of them:

1. Do you think Tate Reeves is the best Lieutenant Governor ever in Mississippi?

2. Wouldn't you agree Tate Reeves is a genius?

3. Do you think Tate Reeves gets a bum rap from the media?

4. Do you think other Republicans are jealous of Tate Reeves?

5. Would you support Tate Reeves for President?

Still thinking of some more.

How about this one:

When you were accepting one penny a year to perform an industrial development role for the city, was that just a gimmick or did you really intend to perform in that role?

And, a followup: During that time, other than dining at Dennery's with old republican party hacks, what did you accomplish in terms of economic and community development?

Shadowfax, Mr. Speed is more intelligent, generous and gracious then you can ever hope to be. We should all endeavor to be such a gentleman. Shame on you.

Leland is that YOU??? LOL good one.... "gentleman" is not even in the dictionary when trying to think of one word descriptions for this guy.

True, you do have to be intelligent to make money in real estate. Just know basic math, hang out at the country club, and hold your liquor. He acted more like a commoner at a public meeting on the lake project, but some of his buddies who got flooded on the basis of his real estate visions were probably putting a little pressure on him at the time.

Shadowfax said...

Sorry; I didn't realize we were reviewing credentials such as generosity, graciousness and intelligence. I was wrong in assuming we might be talking about results. The interview with the Fish is over now and, although I missed it, I doubt it centered on whether or not he was a nice, generous guy. My beef with him was he never produced a damned thing for Jackson, in the past fifteen years, related to industrial development activity. But, he was one helluva gentleman.

2:13; If I were counting on the efforts of Leland Speed to get my plant open, I'd be shit out of luck. That's for sure. He couldn't get a sno-cone stand open. He did manage to accomplish one thing though. His flyer was mounted under plastic on the wall in front of the urinals at Outback and a few other places. Intended to keep patrons from writing on the wall, we enjoyed reading the updates on his holdings.

Shadowfax critizing Mr. Speed is comical. He has accomplished more in his life and continues to do so while Shadowfax spends his time as a cranky wannabe on a local blog.

Shadowfax said...

10:36; you have no idea how I spend my time. As I've said before on the local blog, I have three businesses, two rather local and one out of state, and am enjoying the proceeds from the sale of another. Still waiting on someone to state something Leland did worthwhile (for the state or city) in the past fifteen or so years while everybody was touting his graciousness, gentlemanly manner, honesty, sacrificial nature (one penny salary) and, for all I know, his ability to tickle the ivories and keep his room neat. Who gives a crap how nice he is? Where are the results? Where is the beef?

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.
