Is there a way to have the get() method call other methods to do some
parsing before it returns an object?

yes,
in either
a) a general wrapper
b) the extended dataobject.

by redefining the get() method.
eg.
function get($id,....) {
.. do stuff before...
parent::get($id,....)
.. do stuff after...
}
But I highly recommend you dont do this, as it makes you code more
difficult to follow.. - It is usally better to do something like:
function getWithParsing() {
.. do stuff before...
parent::get($id,....)
.. do stuff after...
}
