Imagine a World Cup for scripting languages:

US              Perl        Running hard all over the park, no style
Netherlands     Python      Oversophisticated, many passes, few goals
Japan           Ruby        Exquisite little tricks that almost work
Brazil          Lua         Simplicity, elegance and flair

Força Brasília!
