You can declare your main method with a throws-clause:

   public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception
   {
     GarageServerImpl g = new GarageServerImpl();
     Naming.rebind("Serve", g); // sets the handle
     System.out.println("GarageServer started and " +
       "awaiting connections.");
   }

This has two advantages: You don't need any try/catch at all,
and in case of exception the JVM will print the stack trace.

Okay, here's the problem with that:

All of this happens when the user clicks "Submit", which means
actionPerformed calls my getQuote() method which is what uses the
try{}catch(){}. actionPerformed cannot throw an exception (or so that
is what the command prompt declares).

I can't think of another way to get around it. Ideas?

    For debugging purposes, catch and rethrow as an error. E.g.

public yourMethod() {
  try {
    /*whatever*/
  } catch (NameOfTheException e) {
    throw new Error(e);
  }
}

    Once you find out more information about the exception, you can figure
out how to handle it properly, in which case you'd replace the "throw new
Error(e)" code with code that actually handles the error.
