SUBJECT: Joseph Robinette Biden, Junior Do you have a way to verify his alleged law degree, JD, 1968, from the College of Law, Syracuse University [New York]. I remain globally blacklisted for gainful employment. There are no checks in the mail from anyone anywhere in the world, the Imperial Presidency of the United States is continuing its policy of 100% taxation of me. Alas, I do not know what else has been stolen from my mail, as I am being held "incommunicado."

Vice sez - Every so often we get postcards in the mail from crazy people. We sort of thought that when we typed yours out and looked at it all crisp and legible it would make more sense, but that wasn't the case. Not sure what type of security clearance you thought we had Herm, but the only ways we have of checking the validity of the Prez and VP's alleged degrees and teaching histories are no different than however the rest of the general populace does it. (Assuming they do that kind of thing.) So while we can't verify that for you, and still don't understand why you've been blacklisted for general employment (is that even possible?), we are going to do you a big solid by giving you an invaluable piece of advice: Don't send your Social Security number to a bunch of people you've never met in Brooklyn. In fact, you can probably just make it a rule not to send that out to anyone, it's just a bad habit to get into. Lucky for you, we're all upstanding citizens and your info will be properly shredded in our fancy paper shredder, but we can't speak for the postal workers who handled your postcard before it got to us. They're a pretty disreputable bunch.
