A novice once came to the master.

- Master, what is the secret to achieve the Perl-nature?

- The secret is never to keep all of your underwear in the same drawer
+.

The novice, by then more than a bit pissed off at the master's cryptic
+ replies, said:

- I'm sorry, Master, I'm not enlightened enough to understand you. Wha
+t did you mean by that?

To which the master replied with a grin:

- How the hell am I supposed to know?

This elicited a wrathful response from the novice:

- I don't know why I'm wasting my time in this stupid monastery. This 
+Zen crap is all nonsense anyway.

As the novice went to pack his bags, the master nodded and said:

- Such a wise thing to say. This one has truly achived the Perl-nature
+.
