School choice will be the number one issue in Mississippi this legislative session. Combatants should be prepared for a no holds barred fight, complete with idiotic talking points and scare tactics.
Among the dumbest rhetoric mindlessly repeated by putatively conservative Mississippi senators is “no public dollars to private schools.”

Owner Bob Crechale passed away on Christmas Eve. The family restaurant will be closing its doors for the final time on February 15.
Some places stand the test of time quietly and consistently. That’s the case with Crechale’s restaurant on Highway 80 in Jackson. When I was growing up in Jackson, it was one of many locally owned eateries that my family frequented. We ate at Primos, the Mayflower, the Elite, LeFleur’s, the Green Derby, the Rotisserie, Dennery’s, and Crechale’s. And while it wasn’t fancy, Crechele’s was always one of my favorites.
