Gabriel a.k.a. "The Shredder" just loves to shred paper, cardboard and plastic. He is not committing random acts of shredding, however. He is tearing the paper (or whatever medium it is) into animals. His most favorite are snakes, alligators, octopuses, lizards, crabs, turtles and fish. He is getting better at creating the various body shapes, but I still have to use my imagination often. Not a bad thing! :)
On a completely different note, I just learned (because of spell checking this post) that the plural for octopus is not actually octopi, which is what I was taught and have always used. So I looked up the plural on the web and it is octopodes; but no one uses it except to argue about what the true plural is. Interesting.... Octopuses is also correct and widely used. It is very surprising what you can learn in just a few minutes from spell checking and web dictionaries.
