(COOLLIST) JAPH** -- the musical
[WARNING: this message contains high geek content. If you are easily

Well, I'm taking a break from the coding here... I've been working on
a system to convert high level descriptions of signal changes into
stimulus files for IC simulators, if you must know.
'Cause I just write Perl, none of that C
Pointers don't keep me awake at night
I just write Perl, obfuscated and lean
And, boy, are my subroutines tight
No doubt you'll recognize the chorus. I pulled down the lyrics as a
guide (thank, AltaVista!), but the rest of the song didn't map too
well... maybe someone else can finish/refine it.
** JAPH stands for "Just Another Perl Hacker", which was a series of
** competitions on the comp.lang.perl.misc newsgroup to see who could
** produce the most obscure code that prints that message; Perl's
** motto is "There's more than one way to do that".
