So one day I went to the bathroom to read and observed the front page was under the title "A Word from Captain Wing..." in the middle of a completely blank page was "me" ... now interested I pressed further into this perfect copy of the newletter and found this article on page 2.

"ALPA Defends Pilot"

"The company is investigating the sick call of Captain Smith who was featured in the local papers as having come in third at a celebrity pro-am golf tournament on a day that Captain Smith had called in sick." ... ALPA responds, "just think how Captain Smith would have played if he had been feeling better."

This spoof newsletter was perfect in formatting and printing. A huge witch hunt, involving hundred hours of interns watching videos to identify who had done the bathroom memo switcheroo, identified a crashpad of bored captains :-)
Love it!
