Jen: OK...I'm *just* about finished translating this and....uh-oh, 
the musicology student is in for it. ;)

"Hey, Mr. Kneasy's back! And Dung blew through here like a breath of 
fresh air, too! Now if we can just lure back The-One-Who-Has-Left-Us-
Forever, dear Sean, and maybe, just maybe Anne will have more time 
when her progeny are out for the summer? Then Kelly will return from 
far, far away and....Potioncat, I'm thinking it's time for that 
party now! You have the cake, right? And Ginger will supply vocal 
stylings for our listening pleasure. Debbie is going to swipe 
butterbeer from the stock at MEG....."

Jen whistled to herself, happy to the see the crew re-assembling, 
certain they were all back to code theories with lightning speed! 
Reject one-liners and 'me toos' with the stroke of a key! Offer up 
new category requests with little thought for the sanity of the 
editor-in-chief! "Well, maybe not." Jen thought, mentally striking 
off the last one. Miss Havisham had enough to do with her pitchfork 
at the moment.
