I want to use the itemize command to produce the following list,
but I don't know if this is possible at all.

*a)* bla bla             * b) *bla bla
*c)* bla bla              *d)* bla bla
*e)* bla bla

instead of

a) bla bla              d) bla bla
b) bla bla              e) bla bla
c) bla bla

Kind regards

Wim
