Well, first of all, welcome to the WWA!
A great number of lessons can be learned from reading the posts here and asking lots of questions... but, there are also three great 'beginners' sites out there you should check:
Wood Magazine's Basic Built site:
http://www.woodmagazine.com/woodworking-tips/basics/
Popular Woodworking's I Can Do That site:
http://www.popularwoodworking.com/icandothat/
And, the Wood Whisperer's New To Woodworking site:
http://newtowoodworking.com/
Those sites are full of plans, techniques, tool tips and lots of other stuff...
Oh, and the only stupid question is the one that's not asked!
