Trillion Consulting: Our first gig

So, as CEO of Trillion Consulting, had my first meeting with a client yesterday. It's a big job, and I played it safe. Promised what I knew I could deliver, which I thought at first to be "not much." It convinced the client to hand me more responsibility at that depth so I was pretty much ecstatic about the jump off to my consulting career. That was the first telecom project. The second one is a Credit Card Transaction Processing System. Will meet with the client next weekend, with proposal, and allow him 10,000X executive authority to make final decisions about the architecture and technology. Then I'm off with that one. It's an exciting time to be a .NET master AND the principal reader of the Telecom Act of '96. If you know anything about my history, you will be reminded of the "Mighty Green Book" of '99, of which I was one of only a few noble souls in the United States found worthy of carrying this magnificence. Because there was no plausible hope of getting anywhere with such volume in this lifetime, I used "horizontal thinking" and grasped from the data the more relevant aspects. I do believe I am currently working on signaling right now, unifying with models of more abstract semantic networks, so that we can begin to think of intelligent voice/data signalling as state transition functions in the finite state domain. It's pure bliss. I just wish a gurl like Jade was my girl, to share my joy with me. But since she's not, I shall hang out, again, with usg... my favorite wife... and regal her with more tales about "stupid people."
