When all else fails install manually:

  1. download the tarball
  2. decompress it,
  3. cd to the directory created, something like Date-Simple-3.02,
  4. perl Makefile.PL will create a make file for you,
  5. make test will ensure that everything is working nicely,
  6. make all will install the module locally in the directory you are working in,
  7. The module will now be in the blib/lib directory; copy it to your development lib directory, use lib on that directory, and you can use Date::Simple.
perl -e 'split//,q{john hurl, pest caretaker}and(map{print @_[$_]}(joi
+n(q{},map{sprintf(qq{%010u},$_)}(2**2*307*4993,5*101*641*5261,7*59*79
+*36997,13*17*71*45131,3**2*67*89*167*181))=~/\d{2}/g));'
