How do I access values set by $.data() inside a function or object

       $('#timers').data('firsttimer', 100);


    //prints 100
    document.write($('#timers').data('firsttimer'));

    function blah(){
        //Prints nothing
        document.write($('#timers').data('firsttimer'));
    }

blah();
