It's just the juxtaposition of the curly brace and semicolon that looks odd to me. Most traditional C-ish languages don't do this sort of thing and the other scripting languages I usually deal with (Python, Ruby, etc) don't need semi-colons. Don't worry, I'm not going go all namespace-backslash-hatemobile on it. ;) @André Oh, I agree it makes sense, the parser would totally flip out otherwise.
