Perl programmer, who me?

Yikes-- it's true. Just purchased Programming Perl, 3rd Ed., from Chapters and am starting to pick it up.

First impressions: It's a damned ugly language to work with, but is very flexible, so I understand why so many sys-admins love it; you can really hack together a quick and dirty application in no time flat.

We'll see how much I like it as time goes.
