I'm trying to parse a log file and I'm pretty sure it is really easy, I'm just mixing some commands and getting weird results. Please see below.

Here's my script 
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;

my %record = ();
my ($title, $row);

while (<>) {
   if (m/^\scustomer/i ... /rows\)/) {

    chomp;
    next if (/^\s+$/);
    next if (/^TEST/);
    next if (/---/);
    next if (/row/);

    if ($_ =~ m/\s(\D+)/i) { $title = $1; }
    if ($_ =~ m/\s+(\d+)/i) { $row = $1; }

    $record{$title} = $row if ( $title ne " ");

  }
}

map { print "$_ -> $record{$_}\n" } %record;
