As many of you know, Citigroup fired Take A Report editor Michael J. McCarthy this week, who turned out to also be a seven-year veteran of the firm, most recently trading shares of utility and power companies. McCarthy, known as "Large" to the TAR audience never identified himself or the Citi association on the site, though apparently did use his work computer to wax poetic on gang bangs, football, and lazy eyes in his free time.
While we say completely sincerely that it's a tragedy this talented writer had to be fired for a fairly innocuous offense-- C spokeswoman Danielle Romero Apsilos said MJM was "terminated for behavior that violated the firm's code of conduct and policies"--it seems like a no-brainer that if you work at a public company obsessed with asinine corporate protocol (and they all are), this is the sort of shit you should lay off of. And if you work for a public company that counts itself among (and very close to the top of) all the US financial institutions bleeding out of every orifice whilst simultaneously getting pounded in the ass by, for instance, Andrew Cuomo, and so desperate to fire people that they're asking you to turn in your colleagues for offenses like mispronouncing the last syllable in 'Ron Blarney' (it's Blar-nay), you should really lay off shit like this.

Too skinny to be over 18. Once girls hit college they lose those great bodies...what a shame.

@6, what i wouldn't give to see you try to pick those girls up and them spit at the ground you walk on. Then you'll really need the mayo.
Posted by guest , Aug 08, 2008 12:43PM

I understand. I frequent, on a daily basis actually, a sports based website that has done multiple posts on the twins.

any of the links NSFW?
Posted by guest , Aug 08, 2008 8:21PM
Well, if they don't make it in the highly-lucrative field that is competitive synchronized swimming, I think they would do pretty well in the slightly-less-lucrative field of "being tied up in my basement."

Didn't this Large person, say "no comment" and refrain from saying anything specific? If I were Mrs. Large I would be planning on where to apply the funds from the ever powerful Citigroup, for putting his name out there. I think they just blew it.
