An Interview with Mr. Gabriel

Enjoy this rare insight into a 6-year-old's mind -- in which the perfect world consists of everyday people having web-slinging abilities and dead presidents return to Washington to run the government!
NOTE: This interview was conducted by a professional journalist and was held over fruit jell cups after school. :)

What's the most important thing in life?
G: Jesus Christ our Lord

What is love?
G: It means you love each other and want to become friends.

Who is your hero?
G: Brett Favre


(Optimus Prime transformer, drawn by Gabriel)


What do you want to be when you grow up?
G: An artist like Leonardo DaVinci. That's how good I want to be.

Who is the best superhero and why?
G: Superman, because he's so strong to lift up a building or a car.

What's your favorite color?
G: Green. For the Green Bay Packers.

What's your favorite food?

G: He's like the king of the world. He is powerful.

Where does he live?
G: In heaven. Up in the clouds.

What are clouds made of?
G: Moisture. (BIG GRIN) I know because dad told me that word and you can fall through a cloud because they're not thick cotton balls.

How do you get to heaven?

What do you think it's like there?
G: It's like living with God.

Dear Mr. Gabriel,

I am learning to eat new foods, but Mom says I'm too little for mac and cheese. Can you recommend a good fruit and vegetable? Or are there specific ones I should avoid?

Thanks for your help,

Elle Roust

Hi Gabe! You've got great taste in music already -- James Taylor ... WOW! Are you also going to learn how to play the guitar like your dad? Then you can play your "cowboy song". :)

Hi Gabe! I lived with your mama in college. I think your transformer drawing is AWESOME. Artists rule. My favorite is Renoir. He was French.
