Joe The V.P. Invites Mark The V.P. To Travel in Europe
Joe Biden, Vice-president of the United States of America (VPOTUSA) and I will be getting together on Saturday to discuss my options of transferring my station of duty from Costa Rica to Europe for the summer.
He was nice enough to ask my parents if it was OK.
Unfortunately, they are unable to give their permission.
They are both dead.
Joe’s pal Gary, who signed the letter on Joe’s behalf (I’m sure) says that I will “stretch beyond the ordinary…” and “…return a child who is more confident and eager…”
What more could a parent ask for?
When Joe and I meet Saturday, I’ll let him know I”m available to be his roaming gnome in Ireland, Wales, England and France.
After all, I have great connections with folks there. Grandad and K8 the Gr8 in Ireland, Polly of Paris, and EmmyLou Cakehead in London.
Stand by, after Joe and I meet on Saturday, I may need some recommendation letters.
Or bail.
As Ambassador for the People of Ireland [also as Wrinkly Ambassador, as of last Monday] I shall of course welcome you to our Blighted Isle. You shall be afforded the full honours of a visiting dignitary and I shall even let you pitch your tent on our lawn.
[I presume the visit is next Summer, as this year’s Summer happened one weekend last May?]
I accept. I will be bringing my own box, not a tent, for sleeping. Is your front lawn available? I would like a view.
Views are not a problem, though you may have to sleep on top of your box as the hedges are quite high. The main lawn has the best views [especially into the neighbour’s bedroom window].
