Karl is Odds-On Favorite in "Fray by the Bay"

The Alameda Daily Noose and I, Roger "The Greek" Grumbel, have endorsed former councilmember Brenda Karl as the odds-on favorite in tonight's "Fray by the Bay," which will finally settle the debate over Alameda's Squirrel-limiting "Measure Acorn." We have placed the odds at a conservative 91-1 against her opponent, all-around nasty person Elaine Hollandaise.

The Alameda Daily Noose and I remind you that betting on sporting events in the United States is a serious crime, and there is absolutely no way that we have our entire $2,035.45 Social Security check riding on tonight's match. Right-thinking Alamedans should not, repeat, not see this as an invitation to place their wagers at the ratty folding table that will be set up discreetly in the shadows of the old arched driveway at the front of Alameda Hospital, starting at noon today.
