Even though Ive been using jQuery for a while, I still go to this page all
the time.
http://docs.jquery.com/Selectors
I can't remember all of it by heart. :)
Near the bottom is has one like the one you wanted, $("p:gt(2)")
So we just change it a little to $("li:gt(7)") and you got it.
In terms of draggable, you need to do a little more.
There is a plugin by Brandon Aaron called Behavior. It listens for
DOM changes and reapplies jQuery rules when the change happens.
