Is there a way to shorten this script? (100 graphics and 200 lines of text)

Whoops.  Still not right.  The line number has to go up twice as fast as the object number.

This can be done with a separate loop variable or doing some math on the repeat loop variable.  

It might be easiest to count graphic objects and then calculate the lines as (2*i-1) and (2*i)
