I basically am making a break for Southern Cal having done my time in frigid and overpriced Northern California. So, I have no obligations. I'm pretty much packed.

So, what do I do all day? I hit the Macintosh version of alt-tab and look in my email box. Delete 1 or 2 pieces of spam. Then alt-tab back to Perlmonks. I read the chatterbox. Chat a bit. Hit "newest nodes". Eat a bit of cottage cheese. Feed the deer outside. Then repeat these in no certain order.

I am just as braindead as the Classic Couch Potato. Only I have substituted DSL and PerlMonks for a remote control, a case of beer and a TV dinner.

I really should be reading perlre or something so I can refresh my memory as to what ?: does in 

sub get_words {

   map /(\w+(?:'[ts])?)/, @_;

}

Or I should be reading the Attribute::Handlers docs as this will really make me a cleaner and more concise developer of Perl Semantic Elements.

But addiction can be this way. Perhaps I should startup a
