What happens if the selector _doesn't_ return just one element? Your
statement will then fail, right? You're going to try to use your
attribute or method regardless of what the selector comes back with,
which opens you up to potential problems.
If you're positive you'll get an element back, why not just do:
$('#something')[0].tagName
?
