Gulp! First try...

Kindly read:    '>' as 'greater',    '!' as 'not',    '&' as 'and',    '=' as 'is',
   ...and ignore all other non-alpha material (including '=~' and '=>').

-------------------------------------------------- our ($lives, $are, $so, $connected) and my ($best, $it) = ! 'enough'; for my $desire (2 => 'ever', b => 'satisfied') {$so = 'that' . y/I// =~ m/here?/;} $it = not $so; my $hope = 2 . join 'with', ('you' & 'others'); for ($so = my $work) {sub sumed {'in' > 'things' and our $potential = 'fullfilled'}} --------------------------------------------------
Passes 'use strict', complains bitterly with '-w', and does nothing interesting.

Cheers,
David

    I really don't like to say things that might put-off any creative act, well except for those damn fruit flies...

    So pardon my pedantry

    for my $desire (2 => 'ever', b => 'satisfied')
    
    Using your 'key' "=>" is "is greater", that asides I liked it ;)

      Pardon readily granted. There are several things I would change. I just had to take the plunge and I figured if I fussed over it forever, I'd never post. Thanks for the feedback.

    Shouldn't line 2 be:
    and my $best = ! 'enough';
    or if you skip '=' as 'is'...
    and my ($best, $is) = ! 'enough';

      Thanks for chiming in. I was looking for a way to declare $it so it would pass strict when used farther down. So the slightly tortured line is intended to read: "And my best; it is not enough." (or some such punctuation)
