I confused Static vs Dynamic typing with Weak vs Strong typing in my earlier post.
To answer your question, some elements of Perl are statically typed, and some elements of Perl are dynamically typed.
The question "Is X strongly typed?" is the invalid one. This post by Dominus includes "eight different and incompatible definitions of 'strongly typed language'" he found.
