i consider Abigail's JAPH's to be the model for good JAPHing. in one of her well known ones she uses Math::BigInt. (as in this clpm post) Therefore pulling in a module is fair game. I went to her JAPH talk at YAPC 19100 and she gave these rules for JAPH's (which i hold to except on rare occasion) 1. short (preferably 4x80 chars or less).
2. prints "Just Another Perl Hacker"
I broke the 2nd, but its a clue :)
