We do what we must because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.
But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

Description
Kitt-in Box is like a keyboard for cats to sleep on while you're working using the actual keyboard. I'm pretty sure my cat would still prefer walking on the actual keyboard, just to get my attention. Worth a try though.

Perl Best Practices by Damian Conway
First to recommend
2 people recommended this item
Description
This book is basically a collection of advices on how to keep your Perl code efficient, clean, and maintainable. Damian is a very opinionated guy, and I don't always agree with him (I love 'unless', and I think inside-out objects are just too kludgy to be useful), but what I like about the book is that it teaches you to write clean, standards-driven, readable code. And I like clean.
