Jefferson Parish News Miscellany: Item 84 on display as we enter the Jefferson Parish Council Twilight Zone

Paul Rioux waded into yesterday’s Parish Council meeting and agenda item #84 full-bore for today’s Times Picayune.

Coming soon to a computer near you: Slabbed.org

Nowdy and I have alluded to our recent problems with sleep deprivation so I’ll come clean with one of the reasons.

Debbie Villio come on down to The Price is Right!

Whitmergate fortified with Rebel Yell did the work (As a guy who traces paternal roots root to ol’ Kentucky I prefer Pappy but my mind is open). Slabbed reports you decide: Ms. Villio filed a financial report, “Committee To Elect Debbie Villio” for monies received from a “breakfast fundraiser” on her behalf. This fundraiser was staged in June of … Continue reading “Debbie Villio come on down to The Price is Right!”

Slabbed Updates the Jefferson Parish front: Wilkinson and Villio enter the twilight zone. A bit more on the Tuesday Night Massacre.

A reader observed to us offline last evening in advance of the Fox 8 report on the Jefferson Parish Personnel Board, this entire affair is taking on a Nixonesque quality.
