 * when I do a var_dump($wpdb), it outputs all the stuff I’d expect it to output
   as well as the content of all of my Pages.
 * weird.
 * could someone explain this behavior? I’m trying to understand how the $wpdb object
   works.

 * When are you calling the `var_dump()`? It’s likely holding cached data from the
   last SQL query.

 * last_result holds the result of the last query. The last query before the var_dump
   was likely a query for the pages.

 * Well, it’s exciting, isn’t it.
 * I had no idea so much was going on.
 * now that I figured out how to use get_object_vars….
 * the world is mine.
