There's a great article over on Humorix.

An excerpt:

The Perl Gazette has announced the winners in the
First Annual Unobfuscated Perl Code Contest. First
place went to Edwin Fuller, who submitted this
unobfuscated program: 

#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Hello world!\n";

"This was definitely a challenging contest," said
an ecstatic Edwin Fuller. "I've never written a
Perl program before that didn't have hundreds of
qw( $ @ % & * | ? / \ ! # ~ ) symbols. I really had
to summon all of my programming skills to produce an
unobfuscated program."

I especially liked the idea of a use really_goddamn_strict pragma... :)
