I get an AppleScript Runtime Error when trying this simple code. I am
copying it from known working tutorial scripts, thinking that my syntax was
off in my project. It makes my head hurt when simple does not work. Am I
doing something wrong?

tell application "Finder"
    set theDesktop to path to desktop as Unicode text
end tell

Finder got an error: Can't make desktop into type constant.
