    Quill,

    I did consider it, but didn't want to steal any thunder from the #powerhousecreatives eventual Pants Off Dance Off competition. It's going to be epic. I've been getting DMs from EVERYONE asking if they can show me their latest moves. I, of course, politely decline. I'm sure I'll be invited to guest judge this fabulous event, so don't want any whiff of partiality to take hold in advance. If it ever got out that I'd been coaching some of the contestants I would be mortified!

    @mattifer,

    Hmmm, Jen ... as Participant #1, I'm not sure it would be kosher for you to be a Judge. Perhaps you could have Beginner, Moderate and Advanced Levels and serve as a Judge in the first two, while allowing other Judges to handle Advanced ... your category.

    As I mentioned to @jaynie in the article:

    In the military, you have no choice but to salute people you think unworthy of the honor. People who you do not believe deserve the command they've been given. There are, however, a few that you salute unbegrudgingly. One of the common character traits of such people is that they're not show ponies .... they lead from the front.

    Alexander the Great, often argued to be the best general in history (hence, the moniker), was notorious for this. His men followed him ... because HE WENT FIRST. He was the proverbial Tip of the Spear. Hannibal was the same way. Caesar too. And Napoleon.

    And Jaynie.

    And Jennifer ... who famously put the "ifer" in Mattifer.

    The burdens of Command can be quite taxing, even intimidating ... but don't worry, Jen, in me you have a supportive friend. As such, I will ensure that you maintain your rightful spot as the head of the Pants Off, Dance Off Glorious Spectacle.

    One day, the Internet will call you ... Jennifer The Great.

    Who knows ... Fruit of the Loom may even dedicate a line of knickers in your honor ... an honor well deserved.

      Quill,

      You're words are, as always, inspiring. Right now I am picturing myself leading a charge of men and women clad only in Fruit of the Loom undergarments - all white of course, that's just how we roll - as we kick off spontaneous Pants Off, Dance Offs wherever we go. People just can't help themselves when they see our fresh, cottony undies.

      Thanks so much for your support. It means a great deal to me.
