I wonder how long it actually took him to tab all that out?

-thabenksta 
my $name = 'Ben Kittrell';
$name=~s/^(.+)\s(.).+$/\L$1$2/g;
my $nick = 'tha' . $name . 'sta';

    hmmm, since my name starts with vowel I think my nickname should go like this:

    my $name = 'Adam Russell';
    $name=~s/^(.+)\s(.).+$/\L$1$2/g;
    my $nick = 'tha' . $name . 'sta';
    $nick=~s/tha(aeiou)/th\'$1/;
