My brother-in-law might’ve produced the best @gojsutigersfb parade montage to date.
If ya like what you see, follow him on TikTok (now that it’s back) for amazing coverage of anything, and everything, that’s goes down in #JXN & #MS.

@JacksonStateU If JXN were to establish a credible Engineering Dept that collaborated with JSU School of Engineering, imagine the "hands-on, challenging & unique" experience JSU Eng students would gain prior to graduation
"watch one, do one, teach one..."

@jallen1985@BGThompsonMS@ChokweALumumba Per recommendation from JXN Public Works, I was told to contact the “engineering dept” concerning multiple collapsed stormwater culverts; some of which pose an immediate threat to the safety of the public.
In the last 8 months I’ve not received any communications from this firm.
@jallen1985@BGThompsonMS@ChokweALumumba FWIW, I reached out directly to my councilman (Ward 1) for assistance on this matter for 2-3 years but my concerns were completely ignored. If it wasn’t for local media outlets and other elected county and city officials, this sink hole would’ve never been fixed.
@jallen1985@BGThompsonMS@ChokweALumumba The salary of JXN’s last engineer was approx $65K. However, 1 engineer cannot fix our infrastructure alone. JXN could’ve established an all-star Eng Dept w/ that $750K
To improve, we must prioritize our infrastructure problems & create a capable, proactive & experienced Eng Dept
@jallen1985@BGThompsonMS In June ‘24 @ChokweALumumba signed a 1 yr $750K contract w/ an engineering firm to help JXN public works
Per the Sec of State, the firm in question was established the same month the contract was signed, employees no more than 5 people, & HQ is a residential property in Ridgeland
@EntergyMS@Entergy
Tree removal was never requested nor implied.
Our only request is that Entergy, which is contracted to provide safe & reliable power to our family homes, maintain their products accordingly & proactive to reduce the inherent dangers associated w/ your product
@Entergy@EntergyMS in all seriousness, please explain to me how this is not a public safety issue. Your “product” causes this tree to ignite almost every time the wind blows & there are 2 residential properties within a 25ft radius of said tree.
Feel free to contact me anytime

@shadwhite Would Morgan Freeman contribute more to the economy if he was an accountant? How about Shepard Smith? Brett Favre? Walt Grayson? ….
We all have a God given talent and whether its designing rockets or simply digging ditches, we all contribute our fair share to the economy.
