Perl frustrations

I dunno how may people here write their own scripts, but if you do -
don't you just hate it when you think up this really great script, you get to work on a coding frenzy only to find the script isn't working
2 hours later after 4 diet cokes and two or three debugging headaches you go for a walk

come back, sratch your butt, look at the code, and a light bulb appears above your head... you scroll up the page, examine the variables thinking that you have mis-spelled something, only to find an erroneous missing semi colon, you add the semi colon and everything works

I suppose it could be worse and nothing works even after you fix the semi colon
