And this is the walking that I have now come to forsake.
For behold, now I posess the sacred Book of Camel, and I now ride in the
  valley of the Monkey. 
The Camel is indeed a beautiful and wondrous beast,
  and my struggle to tame him has seeded the fertile ground so that one
  day I may take tea with the fruits of Regular Expressions, Filename
  Globbing, and Hashes.
And lo, I am pissed, for I did not once gaze upon the Camel until now, and
  my eyes are weary and red from staring into the C.
Master, you have suffered no such fate, and have long rode in the Valley
  of the Monkey, ne'er straying from the one Wall of the land, for it is
  Larry who shall guide us into the Common Gateway, where I am told, the
  Camels do not shit.
