Yeah, Max Sawicky posted that on his blog MaxSpeak. He had his own letter that was great.
Rabbi David Lapin
Toward Tradition
Dear Rabbi:
Like our mutual friend Jack Abramoff, I have been remiss in my devotional activities. Expelled from Hebrew School for being a chochem. Never bar mitzvahed. Married a shiksa. Haven't been to temple since it was destroyed in 70 A.D. Mine is probably not the frst sordid case that has come before you. In fact, I'm certain of it.
As you know, to get ahead in Washington it is very important to burnish one's Judeo-Christian credentials. Like Mr. Abramoff I am hoping you can help me beef up the resume a bit. To this end, I would like to request that you bestow upon me the honorific, "Torah Sage of New Jersey." Let me know if we need to negotiate a fee. May G-d bless.
Sincerely yours,
Max Ben Sawicky

In comments Max says he really sent his letter to the guy.
This is why I keep hearing that you shouldn't put anything in a company e-mail that you wouldn't a) say to the CEO and b) want published in the New York Times.
This just cheapens the accomplishment of those who, like me, actually are talmudic scholars.
The stuff about Grosh, the lifeguard/international exec was also impressive.
Grosh, with tousled hair and long sideburns, told about a call from Scanlon asking, "Do you want to be head of an international corporation?" That, Grosh added, was "a hard one to turn down." The lifeguard/excavator/bartender had the gallery in stitches, and he wasn't finished. "I asked him what I had to do, and he said 'Nothing.' So that sounded pretty good to me."
McCain asked if the think tank had any board meetings. "I recall one," the witness replied.
"And how long did that last?"
"Fifteen minutes," Grosh estimated.
"Do you recall any business that was discussed . . .?"
"Off the top of my head, no." Etc.
