The Fake Obituary in the Washington Post

Sidabsteen: I was 17 or 18 when i came up with this idea to get a fake obit into the washington post. We thought there was a slim chance that this would work, because both papers knew that there had to be great protections taken to ki facobis from trickery. The rules were that, one, you had to have the facts, both from the funeral hol and a relative of the deceased. And in this instance, i said i was the son of this amazing musician and magician named rudy the magnificent. It went on and on an a couple of the other dictations contributed to it.
