    How would I retrieve 1st, 2nd, 3rd nodes separately, and then the rest?

    I want to display the 1st, 2nd and 3rd nodes differently than the rest.  The goal is to highlight the next 3 upcoming events in a special layout, then all the rest in a list.  I think I need to build an array, ordered by date, and assign a number to each, then pick out 1,2,3 individually, then loop out 4 and above in the list.  I can't find an example to build on.

    Any ideas?  All gifts merrily welcomed.

    var items = Model.Children.OrderBy("dateField");

    var first = items.First();

    var second = items.Take(2).Last();

    var third = items.Take(3).Last();

    var list = items.Skip(3);

    See how that goes :)
