Congratulations to Radcliffe’s Marilyn Krawczyk! Marilyn avoided fake ignominy by correctly pointing out the April WOW’s fake ad finery. This, of course, was not to be confused with the fine news fakery that the April WOW also peddled.

Marilyn correctly identified The Freon Furrier on page 105 as the month’s fictitious business. As the result of her brilliance, Marilyn will be taking the activist of her choice to the Citrus Park Outback, courtesy of its proprietor, Derek Holcombe. Thanks, Derek!

Yes, the Fake Ad Contest waded into potentially controversial waters with April’s ad. “Excellent job, Mr. Editor! You have managed to p--- off PETA and the EPA this month!” wrote Bridges resident Nikki Pivnichny. Fortunately for the editor, Westchase’s activist residents didn’t notice. They were too busy writing the Westchase voting members to suggest better names for Westchase than Whackasoogie.

The editor nevertheless wishes to reassure all Fake Ad Fans that he has never owned a fur and that all of his personal refrigerant is far more environmentally friendly than Freon. This, however, will not likely soothe FPE (WOW’s gentle euphemism for the contest’s unwinners) Sabrina Afflixio. “I really don't want to be a frozen pizza eater any more,” Sabrina explained. “I want to win and eat at Outback.”

You can still eat at Outback, Sabrina.

You just gotta pay for it.

Keep the witty and desperate entries coming, Fake Ad Fans!
