...And now for my next trick...

It may be easier than it looks... 

$n=q y$$YVAR;;y;$q=$n=~y%$N-ZA-M;%_A-Z_%;;print map{eval join$/,(map{
";#"}(2..$_)),qq@\$p=$n@;chr$p+$q}qw&66 109 107 108 24 89 102 103 108
96 93 106 24 72 93 106 100 24 96 89 91 99 93 106 38 2&

..and then again it may not. But at least I had fun playing with it.

Update:
Here is the same golfed down to only one map: 

$n=q y$$YVAR;;y;$q=$n=~y%$N-ZA-M;%_A-Z_%;print map{eval";#$/"x($_-1).
qq@\$p=chr($n+$q)@}qw&66 109 107 108 24 89 102 103 108 96 93 106 24
72 93 106 100 24 96 89 91 99 93 106 38 2&

And now using unpack

$_="06610910710802408910210310809609310602407209310610002409608909109
9093106038002";$n=q y$$YVAR;;y;$q=$n=~y%$N-ZA-M;%_A-Z_%;s%\s%%g;print
map{eval";#$/"x($_-1).qq@\$p=chr($n+$q)@}unpack q%a3%x26,$_
