Heavenly Hoboes

by Bob Brewer

To: God, eyes only

  Supreme Being: This thing with Gabriel is getting out of hand. Did you take notice of the fact that he is now copying his comments to Scribe? It’s bad enough that he can’t control his natural enthusiasm to be involved in everything, but making it a part of the Everlasting Record does not bode well with me. Furthermore, perhaps you would relay the message that I am fully conscious of my charge’s history and am handling the situation accordingly. As a last request, if at all possible, is there any way you could quarantine the Record Room just until I get this mission completed? Host

  To: Host. The answers to your inquiries are yes, I noticed and yes, I informed Gabriel and no, the Hall of Records has a strict open-door policy. You and Gabriel should talk. God
