Ehh, have you even read what you copied and pasted?  "this and that"
and "blah" are meant to be placeholders for you to fill in.

I am not sure if "-exec ls -ld" is a good idea.  Doesn't "find" by
itself does enough lstat(2) call to work already?  Even if it were
necessary to trigger a separate stat(2) call, wouldn't "-ls" be
sufficient?
