So am I to keep track on the # of columns for a given key in CF
WebsiteArticle?  i.e. if I want to do a get_slice for the first 10 OR last
10 (I would need to know the count to get the last 10).

So I would have to potentially split the columns to another key then
correct? i.e. website_id1, website_id1-2
