Hi Szymon,
Good catch!  I don't know why this isn't working.

For some reason, this works, rendering nothing:

Shoes.app do
  @ev = every(2) do
    para 'stuff'
  end
  @ev.start
  @ev.stop
end

Maybe the stop is getting issued before the timer gets a chance to
initialize properly?  I don't really understand.
