I was reading up on exception handling..but i dont understand that 
difference between throw/catch blocks and begin/resuce blocks.  My 2 
backgrounds (PHP and VB.NET) both seem to have similar structures in 
Ruby. PHP had try/throw/catch blocks while ruby has throw/catch and 
VB.NET has try/catch/finally while Ruby has begin/rescue/ensure.
