 * Hi,
 * I need to display posts from a category in a grid that looks like this:
 * POST1 | POST2 | POST3
    ____________________
 * POST4 | POST5 | POST6
    ____________________
 * POST7 | POST8 | POST9
    ____________________
 * How do I add a border after the first three posts?
    Sure I can do it with a background-
   image, but that is not flexible add not bulletproof.
 * How do I put a border on just POST2 in every row?
    I guess I can fix it with 
   a negative marginal in CSS, but that isn’t really that neat.
 * Thoughts?

 * Solved the bottom border thing with this bit of code:
 *     ```
       <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
       <?php $count = 0; ?>
       <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
       <?php $count++; ?>
       <?php if ($count%3== 0) : ?>
   
       // make with the usual article content
       //and do something under every third post
   
       <?php else : ?>
   
       // make with the usual article content
   
       <?php endif; ?>
       <?php endwhile; ?>
       <?php endif; ?>
       ```
