A limeric on PERL!
There once was a c coder from Perth,
Who felt coding was like giving birth.
Then he found PERL,
Said, "I'll give this a whirl."
Now he is all full of mirth.
Your humble servant,

A distraught young coder was tricked
by a bug he though he had licked
though his intention was noble
his vars were all global
perhaps he should have use'd strict!

A novice said "Sorry to trouble you,
I hope I will not befuddle you,
My var is set, but
has no value yet"
The sage replied "use -w"

There once was a geek from Nantucket
who counted his loops in a bucket.
But then he found Perl,
his hair started to curl,
and his slide rule fell out of his pucket.

The last line of this one's a little week. Any suggestions?
There once was a PERL coder from Birmingham
Who had a problem that was worrying him
A question answered by a monk
Pulled him out of his funk
Now he's so proud of himself I can't stand him

How 'bout....
There once was a PERL coder from Birmingham
Who had a problem that was worrying him
A question answered by a monk
Pulled him out of his funk
and he toasted the solution with a dram.

I'm all for toasting code with a dram... but I don't think that has the right number of sylables.
