I usually do it the way you're doing it because I wind up going back and doing my query, and then a lot of times I go and do a count and put my results statement in an if statement that decides what to do if for some reason results are less than 1. There are plenty of times I think there will ALWAYS be results and then I break something But yeah, you can string a lot of the methods together. I do it a lot for count if the only thing I care about is a count, too.
