Jen: You deserve a nice, shiny "Services to the School" plaque for 
this one. What, you wanted more? Drat. Seriously though, Thank You.

come up with a definition. Just trying to make sure I know exactly

Jen, who forsees needing an advance on her Easter chocolate to get 
through POA and GOF reviews which she really, really intends to 
complete by next week.
