    Other than the multiple references to Facebook this post was written for Wall Street circa 1982. On another note, that Cadie Thompson has a little naughty going on. Very nice Carney. Very nice.

    I had an oxycontin fueled three-way last week with my bosses’ wife and his executive assistant on a table at Masa. My buddy @ Facebook ((employee #9) is supposed to be pulling down the pictures so I don’t get fired.
