Ever wonder what the day-to-day activities of Karl Rove include?

We would think 1) biting his nails over the war in Iraq 2) planning a new swift boat controversy for the 2008 election 3) worrying about that blasted Office of Special Counsel and 4) when he could get home and get some from his wife Darby.

It never would have crossed our minds that he would waste our tax-paying time to become pen pals with now forgotten singer Moby. See, apparently Moby has a half-brother whom Moby "joked" might be related to Karl Rove. Naturally, Rove felt it necessary to follow up with handwritten letter on personalized White House stationary.

Page Six has the scoop, after the jump.

Dear Moby (or is that Mr. Moby), It's not me. I have no musical ability and am 19 years older (assuming you're 37). So you can breathe easier. On the other hand, James Carville is musically inclined and bald, too. Do you like crawfish etouffee?

Moby's response:

Needless to say I was a bit stunned. A letter from President Bush's brain? The man without whom [Bush] would be doing the alligator on the floor of a Hooters in Biloxi? I was also a bit stunned because the letter was funny.

And we were stunned because the item about Moby was actually interesting.
