Carbolic Smoke Ball endorses for mayor Mark Menold, a/k/a Professor Emcee Square, host of WBGN's "It's Alive"
PITTSBURGH - Although the timing of the next mayoral election is not settled, there is no uncertainty as to the identity of the best candidate. The Carbolic Smoke Ball declares, without fear of contradiction, that Mark Menold, host of Saturday night's "It's Alive" on WBGN-TV, is the greatest host of any television show in America. Pittsburgh has proven that it can garner national attention by having an atypical mayor. Boy mayor Luke Ravenstahl landed himself on the front page of the New York Times (which cited this Web site) and on the David Letterman Show simply because of his youth. Mr. Menold, with his green make-up and accent of indeterminate origin, will easily top that. Everybody in America will be talking about Pittsburgh if Mr. Menold were elected. Accordingly, our choice for mayor of Pittsburgh is Mark Menold, better known as Professor Emcee Square.
