Anyone know how to exclude the latest post from a query? (3 posts)

    I have a query to return the latest post titles from a category.

    <?php $the_query = new WP_Query('category_name=events&showposts=5'); ?>
?php while ($the_query->have_posts()) : $the_query->the_post();?><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" class="postTitleLink">
<?php the_title(); ?></a>
<?php endwhile; ?><?php rewind_posts(); ?>

    Is it possible to give it the property to exclude the most recent or current post?
