Jackson Jambalaya

Time for an update on the Downtown Jackson Trash blog. The blog continues its jihad against all things afflicting Downtown Jackson. Mr. Crowley's first stop is Occupy Jackson.

The Occupy whatever crowd has occupied Smith Park. Post with pictures. Mr. Crowley went by and snapped a few pictures of their new hangout as they audition to become a Chip Matthews production. There is no word on whether Dr. Sethi will finance their attempt or if Rudy will import them to his annual crawfish boil. However there are rumors that a collection is being taken up to pay for them to accompany Lee Paris on his next mission trip to Africa where he will hopefully leave them to "minister" to the indigenous population (Can't say natives anymore.). JJ is also checking into the rumor that Nathan Hargrove was seen talking to members of Occupy Jackson in an attempt to get one of them to get an EF Johnson franchise in Hinds County with Mr. Hargrove acting as a silent partner, signed Hinds County contract already in hand for the yet-to-be formed franchise. But I digress as the Occupy crowd went to the Jackson City Council for some help but yes, Mr. Whitwell actually stood up to them and forced them to come back next week. Word is Mr. Whitwell did it without getting a hair out of place or missing cocktails at Char. Truly an impressive accomplishment. Latest Occupy Jackson post with new pics. However, the Occupy crowd does not play that _____ so they threatened Mr. Crowley with cyber harassment as they ran to their big bruddah, Anonymous Hackers. Post of threats to DJT blog.

However, the jihad does not stop with Occupy Jackson as Mr. Crowley redirected his fire towards local Dewitt Deweese wannabe, Chip Matthews. First he called for a boycott of Mr. Matthews' Canton bbq restuarant, and then raised cane about Club Volume opening on Capitol Street as Mr. Crowley suspects Mr. Matthews is attempting a one-man private sector Farish Street project on Capitol Street. Are you paying attention Mr. Watkins? You might learn something from the Chipper. The Chipper says "screw all that JRA, TIF bonds, and economic development crap, just gimme some metal walls, plastic barrels to hold beer, ice to put in the urinal troughs and the pool tables from On the Rocks or Jackson City Limits and I'll show you some downtown revitalization". Think of it as Farish Street on Viagra.

Its rather unfortunate Mr. Crowley chose this tone as apparently some JPD officers might go to the new club according to postings on Facebook. However, WHAT would a Downtown Jackson Trash post be without the obligatory mention of yes, the Level 3 and Locker Room bars. Mr. Crowley posted a few pics and gave a report from last Saturday night's "Thugout" on Capitol Street. It is not known if Mr. Crowley used an Australian accent or wore a safari outfit as he braved the wilds of Downtown Jackson. Thugout post. However, as always, read his posts at your own risks. More to come.
