It's our column about District 6 Election Drama! Today's weekend episode: Everybody Hates Silver.
Thanks to tipsters who work a lot harder than we do, we learned that Supervisor Chris Daly's ubiquitous string of green Mardi Gras beads are in fact his "District 6 spirit beads," which Daly wears to show his commitment to the L-shaped spit of land he represents.
Well, we suppose it was inevitable that a counter-movement would start. A noted Daly detractor's called for a bead-off, announcing that you can show your solidarity with the "liberate District 6 from Daly" forces by sporting a string of not green, but SILVER beads.
We're now envisioning throngs of people shouting from windows in the upper Mission at passersby: "Show Us Your Six!"

Shouldn't the title be "Everybody hates Green?"
It works on at least 2 levels.
Anyway, as someone who doesn't like jewelery, I would prefer that Chris get his supporters to wear clothes. He'll lose the nudist vote, but they'll brobably vote for Rob Black anyway, because he's made lots of films with naked people in them. I bet you'd see a whole lot of people in D6 wearing clothes if he did.
