Thanks guys ... I'm basically hearing that there's no way for WP_Query to do
this without some sort of custom SQL query.

That's fine ... I just wanted to be sure that there wasn't a way that I was
overlooking.

wp-super-cache helps a lot, and there aren't a lot of issues, but the site
is a pretty large one and I want to make sure it can stand up as it grows.

If anybody has any other advice, I'd be happy to take it into consideration.

Thanks!
Nathan
