How can I concatenate the string that I'm using to define this label text

this seems like it is probably dead simple to somebody but I'm stuck.

I have this little app that picks a random thing from an array of things and then displays it to the user in the form of a question.

NSLog(@"How about %@?", theThing);


// How About...

self.theThingLabel.text = theThing;

//How do I add a question mark to the end of that string

in the code above the NSLog string works just like I want the label to work. I take care of the "how about" part as a string above the displayed result, but I can't figure out how to add that question mark .. something like theThing+"?"

I tried a bunch of stuff but instead of getting lucky I got warned by xcode over and over.

 NSString *what= @"What";
 NSString *finalString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"How about %@ ..?", what];
 NSLog(@"%@", finalString);

Hope that helps
