Sheesh I'm bored too :)

var = pass by reference
procedure/function gets a reference to the caller's value rather than a copy. This means the procedure/function can modify the caller's value.

const = constant
procedure/function cannot modify the value that is passed to it. This also means that you cannot pass the const parameter as a var parameter to another procedure/function.
