A number of flags in our master computer have brought you to our
attention here at the Sheriff's Office, Mr. Haldeman. We would like to
discuss a few things with you.

Our sources show that you have been receiving mail at a Post Office Box
for several years now. Surely you do not live in a PO Box. Please supply us
with your actual physical address. Studies have shown that individual
(non-business) owners of PO Boxes often have ulterior motives in hiding
behind a box number.

Repeated calls to your unlisted home phone have revealed that you
utilize an answering machine. It is well known that individuals with such
equipment are almost always concealing information, especially those
with unlisted numbers.

Deposits to your checking account in May ($26.50) and December
($42.25) of last year were of a cash nature. Please substantiate where this
money came from. Our local banks have been most cooperative in alerting
us to possible money laundering activities. You also deposited two checks
last year from ANALOG magazine. We are interested in your proof that
this is a legitimate publication and not a front for a South American drug
cartel.

You are on record as a substance abuser (beer, nicotine and caffeine).
You subscribe to 17 different magazines, some of which (Playboy,
Penthouse, Analog) are, to say the least, suspect reading material. You
exhibit wanton disregard for public safety by operating your motor vehicle
without the proper maintenance any good citizen would perform as a
matter of course. As a science fiction writer, your abnormal interest тАФ as
verified by library records тАФ in Satanism, ESP and home-brewed beer can
be considered morally questionable to the point of possibly being criminal
in intent.

In short, Mr. Haldeman, you fit every profile we've got, from parking
ticket scofflaw to mass murderer. To answer these questions, please call
our hotline number between the hours of 8am and 5pm using a standard
touch tone phone.

Otherwise, we will be forced to send an officer to PO BOX 12123 in
order to interview you in person.
