With out a lot to do at work today, Jim replies to both:

Peter, I liked your image as well. Very pastoral

Sonny, to answer your question...

ANDERSEN CONSULTING: Deregulation of the cow's side of the road was 
threatening its
dominant 
market position. The cow was faced with significant challenges to create and 
develop the
competencies 
required for the newly competitive market. Andersen Consulting, in a 
partnering
relationship with the 
client, helped the cow by rethinking its physical distribution strategy and 
implementation
processes. 
Using the Cattle Integration Model (CIM), Andersen helped the cow use its 
skills,
methodologies, 
knowledge, capital and experiences to align the cow's people, processes and 
technology in
support of 
its overall strategy within a Program Management framework. Andersen 
Consulting convened a
diverse 
cross-spectrum of road analysts and best cows along with Anderson 
consultants with deep
skills in the 
transportation industry to engage in a two-day itinerary of meetings in 
order to leverage
their personal 
knowledge capital, both tacit and explicit, and to enable them to synergize 
with each
other in order to 
achieve the implicit goals of delivering and successfully architecting and 
implementing an
enterprise-
wide value framework across the continuum of cattle cross-median processes. 
The meeting
was held in 
a park-like setting, enabling and creating an impactful environment which was
strategically based, 
industry-focused, and built upon a consistent, clear, and unified market 
message and
aligned with the 
cow's mission, vision, and core values. This was conducive towards the 
creation of a total
business 
integration solution. Andersen Consulting helped the cow change to become 
more successful.
