[noob again]static text

[Mikey]

OK, I looked through the tutorials and the pdf's, and I can't see how
you just slap some static text on a card.  Said text should be visible
in development and runtime.
-- 
On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth
On the second day, God created the oceans.
On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours,
   and did a little diving.
And God said, "This is good."
