Though not as cool as the ascii art stuff, and not really obfuscated (so why are you posting it then?! Just read on for the anwer) I just felt the urge to post this cuty (here's your anwer).

It runs without producing errors or warnings unless you use strict or use warnings.
I tried to do it with barewords at first but I didn't get that to work :)
          sub I;sub put;sub remove;                                  
I put "the J in RAPH" and remove "the r";                            
          sub I{print "\n";}sub put{($letter,$word)=$_[0]=~m/^the\s(.
          )\sin\s.(.+)$/ix;print $letter.$word;return 0;}sub remove{}
