poem VSarkiss Any self-respecting monastery needs a prayer book. I've seen several references to "Hail Larry" on this site, but never seen the text. So here's my own contribution, the "Our Larry"1. Say this over a rosary before beginning any big project. Our Larry, who art in CPAN, Obfuscated be thy name. Thy code compile, Thy refs be blessed, In <code>eval</code> as it is in <code>-e</code>. Give us this day our debugger. And forgive us our syntax errors As we forgive those who do not <code>use strict</code> and <code>-w</code>. And lead us not into tainted code, But deliver us from <code>malloc</code>. For thine is the laziness, And the impatience, And the hubris, <code>while 1</code>. 1Fellow Christians, please take this in the spirit it was intended: a joke.
