Wow, what a blast from the past. I wrote an article for TPJ a bajillion years ago and there it is <a href="https://www.foo.be/docs/tpj/issues/vol5_2/tpj0502-0007.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.foo.be/docs/tpj/issues/vol5_2/tpj0502-0007.html</a>
I used to really enjoy this magazine. There was quite a bit of diversity in the articles. I found it particularly interesting to see how Perl was being used in various endeavors.<p>I had an entry in issue #7 in the Obfuscated Perl contest. I took second place in the best "The Perl Journal" printed output competition.<p><a href="https://www.foo.be/docs/tpj/issues/vol2_3/tpj0203-0012.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.foo.be/docs/tpj/issues/vol2_3/tpj0203-0012.html</a><p>A lot of the content from these issues was collected in the O'Reilly book Games, Diversions, and Perl Culture.
