print t('Hello World');

Oh wait I should create an API to do it first.

function print_hello_world() {
   print t('Hello World');
}

print_hello_world();

Oh wait I should create an API to do it first.

function execute_print_hello_world() {
   print_hello_world();
}

execute_print_hello_world();

Oh wait I should create an API to do it first.

...

Endless cycle.  I think you need a better descriptor than  
``something'' before you make an API.
