People need to read the manual more.

I'm still sort of confused about the whole collisions topic...

Part 2, you mention bounding boxes? I am using pieces of graphics?

"if ( goingDown )
{
// only bounce if the cheese is going down
if ( cheeseRectangle.IntersectsWith(breadRectangle))
{
// we have a collision
bool rightIn = breadRectangle.Contains(
cheeseRectangle.Right,
cheeseRectangle.Bottom) ;
bool leftIn = breadRectangle.Contains(
cheeseRectangle.Left ,
cheeseRectangle.Bottom) ;

// now deal with the bounce"

A bounding box is a rectangle around an object in your game. It provides a quick way to see if two game objects have collided, in that if the two bounding boxes intersect then you can regard the objects as having collided. It is not perfect, since it doesn't allow for the exact shape of the object, but in most games this doesn't matter.
