A small (for me) JAPH

I know some of you are going to think that I didn't write this one. After all it is much smaller, doesn't require IE or windows, and just prints out "Just Another Perl Hacker". Nevertheless, I did write this one (I needed a break from writing xs).

Those more experianced in perl should quickly know what I did, the rest of you will have to figure it out (it's a good learning experiance). 

($_='Just Another Perl Hacker,' and$
# There's the string
::
{
join '', /\b\w/g
}
=$
# This is the magic
::
{
(split "")[2]^chop
})&&
# Here's the question
print $JAPH;

    Beautiful! That's a nifty way of putting that together :)

    Warning: Spoiler Hint Follows

    With c-era's permission, I offer the following hint to aspiring obfuperl coders: add the following two line to the end of the JAPH and study the output CAREFULLY: 
    use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper( \%main:: ); # <- Hmm, what's that?

    You might want to look at the optimised code with perl -MO=Deparse:

    Spoiler

    print $JAPH if $_ = 'Just Another Perl Hacker,' and
               $main::{join '', /\b\w/g} = $main::{(split(//, $_, 0))[
+2] ^ chop $_};

    Nice use of symbolic references and ^...

    The xor part reminds me of my own $A++ under constraints.
