[Cook] command line targets

I'm new to cook and am having a few problems.  When I type a target at 
the command line it seems to get executed but so does the first 
target/recipe that is in the cookbook.  I think I have narrowed this 
down to the "set force" or "set forced" attribute in the recipes.  I am 
using this attribute as I am under the impression that it is similar to 
the .PHONY attribute in GNU Make.  Correct ???
If not, then is there an equivalent of .PHONY for Cook ?

Is there any difference between "set force" and "set foreced" ???

Thanks,
Brendan Simon.
