We're pleased to announce that within 50 minutes of posting our latest challenge [ WANT 100 BUCKS? ], Leslie Perez, a resident of Queens, New York, was the first to respond correctly.
Leslie's answer:
What strikes me most about the ad is the doctor they chose for the picture.
Dr. Bernstein, Hair Transplantation expert for the Center for Hair Restoration, is completely bald!

A Penn alum, and graduate of Cardozo Law, Leslie is currently associated with a Queens-based landlord-tenant firm.
When apprised of her victory, Ms. Perez wrote:
Winning this prize is the icing on the cake for a very good day -- earlier today [11/14/07], I was sworn in as a member of the New York State Bar. :)
A $100 gift certificate is on its way to you, Leslie. And, here's wishing you much success (and many more victories) as a member of our great profession.
And to those of you who didn't win, we are most grateful for your feedback and support and look forward to your participation in future challenges.
Onward!

By the way, Norma Frade , the victor of our last challenge, narrowly missed a second win. (Her response clocked in only 20 minutes after Leslie's.) While our dear friend, Gines Pasamonte, was asleep at the wheel and chimed-in some 21 hours later. What's up with that, Pasamonte?)
And if you want to be "PC," could you all stop using the word "bald?" I, for one, prefer "follically challenged."
