"Consulting" is a catch phrase meaning "unemployed."
It's very curious, the sparkling husband primitive's business.
It's lucrative enough for the sparkling husband primitive and the sparkling husband primitive's wife to take an occasional trip to Europe, and for the sparkling husband primitive's wife to take some trips to Switzerland with Mrs. Tutweiler, who lives down the street. And as the sparkling husband primitive, in discussing the bathroom upstairs, admitted a couple of years ago, they employ a professional maid.
And there's all those trips to San Francisco.
So one connects the dots.
.the sparkling husband primitive is of Italianate derivation, and was born and raised in Bridgeport, Connecticut, a mob-run city
.after his stint in the Navy 1965-1967, with no discernible job training in any field, the sparkling husband primitive ends up in Baltimore, Maryland, a mob-run city, specifically by the d'Alessandro crime family
.in the late 1960s, the d'Alessandro crime family moved some of its operations to San Francisco, including Bela Pelosi, the daughter of old man d'Alessandro
.the sparkling husband primitive oftentimes goes to San Francisco to confer with business associates named "Salvatore," "Al," "Lucky," "Izzy," "Meyer," "Willie," "Scrunchface," "Gio," and so on
.the sparkling husband primitive has an unusual affection for Bela Pelosi
.the sparkling husband primitive and the sparkling husband primitive's wife live a modest life, in a slightly-seedy, slightly-rundown, section of Baltimore
.....it all leads to one reasonable conclusion.
One is intrigued by the sparkling husband primitive's possible role in the organization; he's too much of a wimp to be an "enforcer" or "leg-breaker." Probably he's the organization's token sissy-boy, which is a position within the organization that is hardly insignificant or unimportant.
