I have been on a map kick recently so...
using 2 " and no ; / \ or enter keys

#!/usr/bin/perl -l
%couples = (
  Fred=>"Wilma",
  Barney=>"Betty",
  George=>"Jane",
  Homer=>"Marge",
  Pter=>"Lous"
);
map print, map "$_ is married to $couples{$_}",sort keys%couples

[download]
It weights in at 63 characters.
I was reading the above posts and I was able to get this
%c=%couples,map print,map "$_ is married to $c{$_}",sort keys%c

[download]
Which is 62 characters.
Update. Thanks for the getting rid of the extra map belg4mit.

I don't know what I was thinking *grin*
In a semi related note I used this when someone wanted to a print out of the @INC.
