Actually, the code works as is, but, I was wondering if there was a POE
built in method for accomplishing the same thing. the $poe_kernel->run at
the top doesn't really do anything (except prevent a runtime error), because
I haven't created a POE object yet

are calling $poe_kernel->run(), which AFAIK doesn't return until POE exits,
before it. I follow the pattern of creating all my POE-ish objects with
calls from main::, then calling POE::Kernel->run as the last thing in
main::.
