"On certain occasions, I would read an interesting Perl article (like that recently posted by japhy on japhy’s Obfuscation Review) and get excited to a point where I absolutely have to get down to my emacs to start playing with snippets of Perl code. This means I have to put off the other work I was being paid to do before. Like this other day, I spent nearly an hour musing over various Perl variables and their use (perlop)."

Well, if I were to consider this theft, then I would consider it "Mind R@pe" when I'm hanging at home and the solution to a work problem suddenly hits me and I spend the next 3 hours @ home on *my* time fixing a bug or coding and documenting a solution, when I *should* have been paying attention to my girlfriend and relaxing.

I use those as even trade. Fortunatly my boss is usually ok with this.

"Nothing is sure but death and taxes" I say combine the two and its death to all taxes!
