If you think that's bad, get a copy of this month's Perl Journal. The issue
is dedicated to "Perl Poetry". There's even an entire article written on Perl
Haiku. But not only is the article written *about* haiku, the entire thing is
written *IN* haiku meter!!!!!! Talk about sick people! :)

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.
If you're not having fun, you're not doing it right!
